2022 College football win totals, odds: Best bets, over-under picks, top futures, record predictions

The 2022 college football season is upon us and bettors are scrambling to make their 2022 college football futures picks. After a loss in the national championship game in what Nick Saban called a build-up year, Caesars Sportsbook put the over-under for Alabama in its 2022 college football winning totals at 11. Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young will be back for the No. 1 Crimson Tide, but an out-of-conference matchup against Texas and a run through the always-brutal SEC will mean the regular-season overall wins are no picnic.

Ohio State’s No. 2 will also go into the season with high expectations, and the Buckeyes are facing one of college football’s highest totals of 2022 with 11 games. The Buckeyes will open their season on Sept. 3 against No. 5 Notre Dame.

Top College Football Winning Overall Predictions

One of college football’s best 2022 over-under bets from the model: Northwestern comfortably beats its 3.5 win total for a -140 payout. The Wildcats posted a disappointing 3-9 record a season ago, but Pat Fitzgerald is entering his 16th season at the helm of his alma mater and has never lost in a row.

Northwestern has a three-game home streak early in the season where they are either favored or very narrowly favored against Duke, Southern Illinois and Miami, Ohio. There will also be a winnable matchup against Nebraska to open the season in Ireland on August 27 and rival Illinois at home on November 26.

Ultimately, the model expects Fitzgerald to field a roster that plays a more typical type of tenacious defense after dropping 29.0 points per game last year. The offense can only go up after averaging 16.6 points per game. Because of this, the model predicts Northwestern will win an average of 5.1 games.
