[Ep. 32] Big Ten Betting Preview 2026: The Big Three, a 20-1 Dark Horse, and Our Big Ten Best Bet
The Big Ten preview is here, and it's the last power 4 conference stop before we dive into the G6. Nate breaks down the top five betting favorites to win the league: Ohio State (+190), Indiana (+270), Oregon (+290), USC (+1500) and Michigan (+1500). Every one of them is a pass, and he explains exactly what number each team would need before it becomes a bet. Then the dark horse. A team outside the big three sitting at 20-1 with an experienced roster, a coaching staff that brought half its old team with it, and a schedule that misses Ohio State, Indiana and Oregon. After that it's rapid fire through the rest of the conference, from Washington all the way down to Purdue, plus a win total bet on a team most people have already written off. Three bets on the board from this episode. All of them logged and public. Next week: the G6 and the independents, Nate's favorite episode of the year. Follow @ntsports22 on X, Instagram and TikTok. Every bet tracked in the Action Network app.

[Ep. 31] SEC Football Betting Preview 2026: Georgia to Three-Peat + Dark Horse
The SEC preview is here — nine conference games, a chip on the shoulder after three straight Big Ten titles, and a conference title race that's tighter than the odds suggest. Nate walks through the top five betting favorites to win the SEC, plus a dark horse play outside the top five, and rapid-fires every remaining team's win total and conference price. What we cover: Texas (+300) — why the schedule kills them and where we land on the 9.5 under Georgia (+320) — best roster, best continuity, best coach, and the play we already made Alabama (+850) — the QB battle, a 3.4 YPC run game, and five new O-line starters LSU (+850) — Lane Kiffin's return to Oxford and the brutal opening stretch Texas A&M (+850/+1000) — Marcel Reed, two new coordinators, and a rebuilt trench Oklahoma (+1300) — our dark horse flyer and why the market is sleeping on this defense Rapid fire: Ole Miss, Tennessee, Florida, Missouri, Auburn, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Arkansas Two bets on the board. Zero SEC win totals — and we explain why. Follow the show on X @ntsports22 for plays, prices, and rationale between episodes. Every bet tracked publicly on the Action Network app @ntsports22.

[Ep. 30] 2026 Big 12 Betting Preview: Win Totals, Futures & Best Bets
College football preview season rolls on at Good Bets Good Times, and this week we're diving into the chaos of the Big 12 — the Monster Energy Big 12, if you're nasty. Nate breaks down the top betting favorites to win the conference — Texas Tech, BYU, Utah, Kansas State, and Houston — plus a 30-to-1 dark horse worth a sprinkle and a rapid-fire run through the rest of the league. We dig into futures prices, win totals, and the schedule spots that actually matter: why Texas Tech at plus-100 is a live buy even after the Sorsby saga, where the real value sits in the Kansas State market, why the top-heavy favorites are all a pass at their number, and the TCU long shot Nate's betting on Jaden Craig to pop. Plus win-total plays on Kansas State, Oklahoma State, and a few leans we're still waiting on a better price to pull the trigger. No touts, no Vegas-insider nonsense. Just clear football betting talk for degens and weekend warriors who want to win a little more, lose a little less, and have a damn good time doing it. Next week: the Big Ten.

[Ep. 29] 2026 ACC Championship Betting Odds & Preview — Top 5 Contenders + Dark Horse
College football preview season kicks off on Good Bets Good Times, and we're opening with the ACC. Nate breaks down the top five betting favorites to win the conference — Miami, SMU, Louisville, Clemson, and Virginia — plus a dark horse worth a small sprinkle and a rapid-fire run through the rest of the league. We dig into futures prices, win totals, and schedule spots that actually matter: why the Miami favorite number is a pass, where the real value sits in the SMU and Louisville markets, whether Clemson is a brand-name price or a live buy, and the Virginia bet that's already on the card. Along the way, a quick lesson on why you can bet a team's under and their conference futures at the same time — median outcome vs. tail. No touts, no Vegas-insider nonsense. Just clear football betting talk for degens and weekend warriors who want to win a little more, lose a little less, and have a damn good time doing it. Next week: the Big 12.

[Ep. 28] NFL Win Totals 2026: 5 Bets I've Already Placed
NFL win totals are posted and the lines are already moving. On Episode 28 of Good Bets Good Times, I walk through the 5 NFL over/under win total bets I've locked in for the 2026 season — why I'm getting down this early, where the value is, and which numbers are already gone. This isn't a picks service. It's how I actually think through win totals: raw model line vs. market-adjusted line, hit probability, and finding the right price across 12+ books. The 5 bets on the board: Los Angeles Rams Philadelphia Eagles New York Jets Pittsburgh Steelers Buffalo Bills Plus the ones I'm still circling: Buccaneers, Falcons, Ravens under, Cowboys, Cardinals, and a Jaguars number that looks too good to be true. Why line shopping and getting in early actually wins you money over a full season — and the bets that already aren't available at the price I got. — New episodes drop every Wednesday.

[Ep. 27] What Kind of Sports Bettor Are You? The 6 Tiers, Honestly
What kind of sports bettor are you actually — not what you tell the group chat, what you tell yourself when nobody's watching? In this episode of Good Bets Good Times, Nate breaks down the three main tiers every bettor falls into — the Weekend Warrior, the Recreational Sharp, and the Aspiring Pro — plus three sideways tiers that get less honest airtime: the Picks Buyer, the Degenerate, and the Problem Gambler. The pitch is simple: most of the noise in this space pushes you to climb some imaginary ladder toward pro status. For 99% of recreational bettors, that's the wrong goal. The right goal is knowing your tier, being honest about it, and being the best version of yourself within that lane. You'll get actionable steps for every tier — bankroll discipline and line chopping for the Weekend Warrior, CLV tracking and specialization for the Rec Sharp, and the brutal realities of what it actually takes to bet professionally (mid-six-figure bankrolls, getting limited at every book within weeks of winning, and watching sports stop being fun). Closes with five principles that apply no matter where you land: know your bankroll, line chop, don't chase, track everything, and only bet what you can afford to lose. Follow the show so you don't miss next week's episode — diving into NFL win totals with a bunch of leans Nate's been working on. Hit him up on X @ntsports22 and let him know what tier you're actually in. Cheers.

In this episode: Top 5 contenders: Ohio State, Notre Dame, Oregon, Texas, Indiana Major movers: Miami climbing, Clemson and Alabama fading Honorable mentions worth watching: Georgia, LSU, Texas Tech The most important piece of betting advice you could ever receive. This isn't a picks service. It's a thinking framework for rec sharps, degens, and weekend warriors who want to win a little more and lose a little less.

[Ep. 25] Where the NFL Futures Market Moved — and Why the Draft Didn't Matter
Season 2 is here. We dig into the NFL futures market post-2026 Draft and ask the question nobody else is asking: did the draft actually move the betting market? The short answer might surprise you — 21 of 32 teams saw zero change in their Super Bowl odds during the draft window, and only one team had a verifiable, narrow-window market move (hint: it's the Giants). 🔗 All links: ntsports.bio Inside this episode: Why the NFL Draft barely moves Super Bowl futures — and what actually does The Giants story: the only team with a real draft-window odds shift The most underrated futures move of the offseason Why the Rams' draft grade got an F but their Super Bowl odds got shorter The contender fades nobody saw coming: Eagles, Lions, Packers NT Sports is a sports betting podcast for recreational bettors who want to think about the game like sharps without the ego.
