How to use SBR's odds tables
Understanding how odds work is the first step toward college football betting immortality – and in order to do that, you’ll need to be able to understand how to read odds tables.
Sportsbook Review takes the guesswork out of making sense of college football odds tables! Each set of game odds includes three important additional features:
- The Favorite feature (indicated by a star to the left of the team names) lets bettors prioritize specific matchups on their main Odds page; simply click the star, and that game becomes a favorite.
- The Matchup feature (indicated by the word "Matchup" to the right of the star) is a stathead's delight, transporting interested bettors to a page fully devoted to trends, comparisons and other game details for the game in question. Best of all, the Matchup page includes the best values for spread, total and moneyline plays.
- The Odds History feature (indicated by parallel wavy lines to the right of the Matchup link) takes bettors through every major odds development since the lines first opened. Players can alternate between a variety of sportsbooks and quickly identify every time the spread or total shifted.
How to read NCAA football odds
Once you have a basic understanding of how odds work, becoming more comfortable is a simple matter of studying them. Here are the two main types of odds you’ll encounter:
- In moneyline betting, there is typically a favorite (the team expected to win) and an underdog (the team expected to lose). The favorite's odds will have a minus sign, such as -150. This means you need to wager $150 to win $100, as the favorite is seen as a safer bet. On the other hand, the underdog's odds might be shown as +125, indicating that a $100 bet would win you $125, reflecting the higher risk associated with betting on the underdog.
- For point spread and totals betting, the odds are usually set at -110, which is the standard for college football bets that sportsbooks view as a "coin flip." This means that to win $100, you would need to wager $110, with the payout being the same regardless of which side you bet on. The reason the odds aren't truly "even" is due to the extra 10 cents on either side, known as the vig, which is essentially the fee sportsbooks charge for taking the bet.

How to bet on college football
It's easy for new bettors to get assailed by an overabundance of symbols, numbers and betting terms that sound like an entirely different language. But fear not! We have the key to understanding the most important parts of basic NCAA football betting.
Point Spread Betting
The point spread is a betting innovation sportsbooks use to make a matchup more even.
In this situation, the favored team is given a points handicap bettors must factor in when making their wagers; for example, let's say the the Florida State Seminoles are a 12.5-point favorite vs. the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, which means that anyone betting the Seminoles on the spread will need Florida State to win by more than 12.5 points in order for the bet to cash.
Conversely, if the Jackets win by fewer than 12.5 points, or pull out the outright victory, all spread bets on Georgia Tech will cash.
Check out our detailed guide to spread betting for tips and strategies.
Moneyline Betting
While spread betting can feel a little intimidating at first, wagering on the moneyline is one of the easiest bets you’ll make. Here, you simply choose which team you believe is going to win. A team victory is a betting victory, no matter the margin of victory.
There are, however, some caveats. Teams that are heavily favored might be tempting to pick, but players should bear in mind that the heftier the favorite, the worse the payout – meaning it will take a much higher bet to secure a decent return than if the matchup were more even.
There's also the matter of line shopping, which refers to the practice of scouring multiple sports betting sites and betting apps for the best price. Not all moneylines are equal across all sportbooks, so having access to multiple betting apps is a strong strategic play, even for casual bettors.
Our comprehensive guide to moneyline betting answers a lot of additional questions novice players might have about this bet type.
Totals Betting
Totals (or over/under) betting compares favorably with moneylines when it comes to the ease with which bettors can both understand and wager on them.
Each college football game carries a total that sports betting sites assign based on how many points they think will be scored. You, the player, then decide if the actual number of total points in the game will finish above or below the sportsbook's number.
But that's far from the only application; in fact, the beauty of the totals bet is that it can be applied to dozens of college football props markets, including team stats like points, touchdowns and field goals, and individual player stats like rushing yards, interceptions and catches.

Prop Betting
They're the games-within-the-games – and they're among the fastest-rising bet types when it comes to overall popularity (though you can’t bet on them everywhere).
Prop (or proposition) betting shifts bettors' focus away from game outcomes and squarely on in-game outcomes involving players or teams.
The key to successful prop betting lies in specialization. With so many options to choose from on any given Sunday, even more experienced gamblers would be wise to focus on specific types of props where their knowledge is strongest.
It's also critical to be able to quickly identify value – and as mentioned earlier, having access to multiple prop betting sites is an easy way to ensure that you're always getting the college football player props with the best odds for a given prop bet.
Parlay Betting
When it comes to NCAA football bet types with wide-scale appeal, absolutely nothing compares to parlay betting – and that makes it the most divisive wagering category of all.
A parlay combines two or more individual wagers (or "legs") into one bet, offering a larger payout than a standard bet but with a lower chance of success since players need every bet on their ticket to win. Bettors can even combine outcomes from the same matchup onto one card; these "same-game parlays" have exploded in popularity in recent years.
Many traditionalists in the sports betting space believe that parlay betting is too much like playing the lottery, and will discourage players from building college football parlays altogether. But with parlays making up the largest share of betting handle for nearly every sportsbook during the NCAA football season, it's clear where the public wants to spend its money.
Our guide to parlay betting provides more info on parlay bet types, how to understand parlay odds, and strategies for parlay wagering.
Futures Betting
The college gridiron calendar is shorter than just about every other major North American sport – and the offseason can feel like eternity to bet-hungry NCAA football fans.
Fortunately, college football offers a wide array of futures betting opportunities to sate bettors' appetite year-round. Bettors can decide on their choice of national title winner as far as 12 months in advance, while Heisman Trophy markets are available for most of the year.
Futures markets are among the simplest of them all: Choose the player or team you think will win, and if they do, then your ticket is victorious. and as an added bit of strategy, several of the top sports betting sites are now allowing bettors to cash out a futures wager – meaning you can accept a lower payout for settling your wager before the outcome is decided.
Some bettors will use this option to make futures bets that don't necessarily have a good shot at succeeding, but are likely to see shorter odds in time, setting the stage for those players to accept a cash-out for more than their initial wager.
How to choose NCAA football betting sites
Knowing pigskin is only part of what will make you a successful college football bettor.
As with making any important purchase in life, the ability to shop around for the best NCAA football odds is a significant difference maker in this space. And we have several suggestions on how to find the best college football betting sites available in your area:
