While Week 12 of the college football season is all about the playoff hunt -- teams trying to climb back into it, maintain their positions, or teetering on the precipice. No. 12 Georgia needs a win after last week's loss to Ole Miss, but will now be tasked with handling another tough SEC team in No. 7 Tennessee. No. 20 Clemson is on the fringes of the hunt as the most likely challenger to the ACC title, but will have to visit a 7-2 Pitt team with its own point to prove. And No. 13 Boise State (-14.5 vs. San Jose State) will need another dominant win to continue to prove to the committee that it belongs with the power conference schools (see college football odds here). 

The latest Week 12 college football odds list Georgia as a 9.5-point favorite at home over Tennessee, while Clemson is an 11.5-point favorite on the road against Pitt. Before you make any Week 12 college football predictions, be sure to check out the Week 12 college football picks from our proven CFB expert Thomas Casale.

A frequent guest on national radio and TV shows to discuss college sports, Casale has been betting -- and winning -- for more than 30 years. 

Over the past two college football seasons, Casale is 122-92-5 (57%) overall and 26-8 (76.4%) in bowl games -- all publicly documented. Just last week, Casale advised SportsLine members that BYU was on upset watch and took Utah at +4 against the Cougars. BYU barely escaped with a 22-21 win and the Utes covered.

Now, he's turned his attention to the 2024 Week 12 college football odds (see the latest college football lines for each game this week on our college football odds page) and is revealing his top plays.

We can tell you Casale is backing No. 16 Kansas State (-7.5) against Arizona State on Saturday. He notes that K-State is coming off a bye and matches up well with the visitors. "The Sun Devils run the ball more than 60% of the time," the expert said. "That will be a challenge against a Kansas State defense that ranks 14th against the rush and limits explosive runs."

Casale has also found two other college football picks he loves, including a must-see play on the Clemson-Pitt game! You ABSOLUTELY need to see what he's playing before locking in any college football picks.
