Pat McAfee’s new betting record

McAfee needed a good weekend, and his picks came through at the perfect time.

His record had been inching closer to even over the past few weeks, but he’s now firmly in the green.

McAfee’s combined record for NFL and college football betting is now 30-19.

So far, you’ve been a big winner if you’ve taken all of Pat’s Picks.

He typically does his best work when he puts out large slates of NFL picks. That was certainly the case this past weekend.

But will his record hold as the season goes on?
