The college football regular season is winding down, which is going to make handicapping even more difficult. There will be some games where both teams will be sufficiently motivated and it will be a pretty straightforward handicap, but there are also going to be some games where effort is going to be in question.

Live betting may be more beneficial at this time of the year so that you can actually see the teams between the lines rather than invest money into your speculations.
Here are my power ratings for Week 12:
