We&#8217;re focused and these matchups are too good to miss. Let\u2019s get back on track and make the most of this weekend\u2019s action!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>College Football Picks for Saturday, Nov 16th<\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><b>Clemson vs Pitt +11.5<\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pitt has a solid defense that could cause problems for Clemson\u2019s offense, which has been inconsistent at times. Also, Clemson has shown some vulnerability on the road this season, especially when laying big spreads. The Panthers have kept games close against tougher teams\u00a0 and with the points in their favor, they\u2019ll have the opportunity to play a conservative, grind-it-out game. Clemson may win but I expect Pitt to keep it within the spread. Given Clemson\u2019s struggles to cover large spreads on the road this season and Pitt&#8217;s ability to hang tough at home, taking Pitt +11.5 is the play. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>NFL Picks for Sunday, Nov 17th<\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><b>Packers -5.5 vs Bears<\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Packers -5.5 against the Bears still looks like a solid play. The Packers have been the more consistent team this season, with a defense that\u2019s been good at limiting big plays and an offense that\u2019s found its rhythm under Jordan Love. The Bears, on the other hand have struggled to put together a complete game. Chicago has shown flashes of potential but they keep making mistakes that give up crucial yardage and points. With Green Bay\u2019s ability to control the game with both the run and pass, and the Bears issues with consistency, I like the Packers to cover the -5.5 on the road. Green Bay should have enough firepower to take control and win this one by a touchdown or more.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Bonus Pick<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><b>George Pickens Over 65.5 yards receiving<\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m taking Pickens Over 65.5 receiving yards in this weekend. Pickens has become the go to guy in the Steelers passing game. The Steelers have been using him as a deep threat. With his ability to stretch the field, he\u2019s averaging over 16 yards per catch this season. His role has only grown in recent weeks, especially with opposing defenses focusing more on stopping Pittsburgh\u2019s run game. Pickens to easily go over 65.5 yards and continue his upward trend as one of the team&#8217;s top targets.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boom, you\u2019ve got your picks to power through the weekend! We\u2019ve dissected the stats and now it\u2019s time for the fun part. Lean back and let the games do their thing. Good luck, and see you next week!<\/span><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Football weekend is here and after a rough 1-5 last weekend, we&#8217;re keeping it simple this time with just 3 picks to bounce back strong.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":196,"featured_media":21879,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":[],"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[33,5,1],"tags":[1400,2725,2730,2728,2727,2724,2729,2726],"class_list":["post-21878","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-college-football","category-example-3","category-uncategorized","tag-ai-nfl-predictions","tag-clemson-vs-pitt-pick","tag-college-football-saturday-picks","tag-football-picks-for-nov-16-17","tag-george-pickens-over-65-5-yards","tag-nfl-week-11-predictions","tag-packers-vs-bears-prediction","tag-packers-vs-bears-spread","two-columns"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/e0eafc61-106d-4f18-8470-e6e5725d1536-1.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21878","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/196"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21878"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21878\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21880,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21878\/revisions\/21880"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21879"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21878"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21878"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21878"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
