College Football Wednesday Picks: October 28, 2026

Two college games on Wednesday night, and a Game Pick on both: Kennesaw State at Middle Tennessee, and Jacksonville State at New Mexico State.

These are Game Picks. Our college ratings haven’t beaten the lines in testing, so these are leans, and every one gets graded on the receipts page win or lose. We don’t post college player props.
