College football win totals odds have given Miami (FL), Penn State and Ohio State the highest win totals set at 10.5. Of the trio, the Hurricanes hold the best odds (-310) to hit the OVER on their win total as Cam Ward still carries an undefeated record ahead of Week 8.

I was right about alabama's win total
I warned you about jumping on Alabama's win total following their win over Georgia. As we know, that hype and No. 1 spot in the AP-poll rankings was short-lived.
A few short weeks ago, 'Bama was -265 to hit the OVER on 10.5 wins. Since then, their total has dropped to 9.5 with them being slightly favored to accomplish that goal.
But, this group is just itching to be upset again. The stunning defeat to Vanderbilt took the wind out of their sails; I mean, they barely could beat South Carolina in Week 7!
What I said a few weeks ago hasn't changed -- Kalen DeBoer's schedule is tough. He still has a ranked Tennessee, Missouri, LSU and Oklahoma. At +118, I'd dabble in a plus-money UNDER considering there's plenty of room for upsets in the coming weeks.
Miami Hurricanes OVER 10.5 Wins (-310)
Miami's win total sits at a complimentary 10.5 wins. With Cam Ward exploding onto the scene, snagging over 2,200 yards and 23 total touchdowns through seven weeks, the Hurricanes are poising to be a national threat.
After cruising through the Gators in The Swamp, 41-17, we all knew the Hurricanes weren't messing around this year. So far, two running backs carry the backfield with Damien Martinez and Jordan Lyle combining for eight touchdowns. Then, a trio of receivers (Xavier Restrepo, Isaiah Horton and Elijah Arroyo) have already eclipsed 290 yards each.
The remainder of Mario Cristobal's schedule looks very doable, with the hardest matchups slated in Week 8 (vs Louisville) and Week 12 (vs Syracuse).
colorado buffaloes OVER 7.5 Wins (+118)
This line just keeps slowly jumping, once 6.5 wins and now set at 7.5 wins. Colorado is sneaking some wins this season, defeating Colorado State, Baylor and UCF. They may have entered FBC Mortgage Stadium as 13.5-point underdogs in Week 5, but the Buffs hushed that amped up crowd, 48-21, never trailing once. Following that, they covered their 3.5-point 'dog meeting against Kansas State.
Say what you want, but they're holding their own.
Being sacked 23 times, the offensive line is still failing Shedeur Sanders. The senior has throw four interceptions across six appearances, surpassing his season total from last year.
I was more comfortable sprinkling a wager on this at 6.5 and perhaps we'll see it fluctuate once more. However, at 7.5 (+118)... why not? Deion Sanders, already with four wins under his belt, should navigate his schedule featuring teams like Arizona, Texas Tech, Cincinnati and Kansas well enough to surprise us with more wins.
college football Odds to go undefeated
It's not easy, but it's possible for the best in college football to shine with a perfect record.
| Team | Yes |
|---|---|
| Oregon Ducks | -130 |
| Texas Longhorns | +138 |
| Miami (FL) Hurricanes | +198 |
| Penn State Nittany Lions | +245 |
| Iowa State Cyclones | +330 |
| BYU Cougars | +470 |
| Army Black Knights | +1080 |
| Indiana Hoosiers | +1750 |
| Pittsburgh Panthers | +2200 |
| Navy Midshipmen | +3600 |
Odds as of October 3, 2024
Only one team finished last regular season with a spotless record, the Michigan Wolverines (15-0), who went on to win the national championship.
According to the odds above, the Buckeyes have the most likely chances of going undefeated this year at +250. But, Ohio State hasn't seen a perfect season since 2012.
A more probable plus-money option would be leaning on the 'Dawgs, who have lost just two games over the last three seasons. They're carrying a Heisman Trophy favored quarterback, Carson Beck, and have proper dominant leadership under Kirby Smart.
Understanding Odds For College Football Win Totals
At any sportsbook, you’ll see prop win odds listed like this:
(The O stands for OVER and the U stands for UNDER.)
Alabama 9.5: O -105, U -125
Michigan 7.5: O -135, U +105
Notre Dame 9: O +110, U -140
USC 8.5: O -130, U EVEN
Let’s look at the Crimson Tide. Last season they had 11 regular-season wins. If you think they’re going to run the table again this year, you would take the OVER. A $100 bet would give you a payout of $195.24 – your original $100 is returned along with your winnings of $95.24.
On the other hand, if you think they won’t win more than 11.5 games, you would take the UNDER. That same $100 gives you $180 – you get your money back coupled with the $80 you won. Our odds calculator will show you what you’d win based on the odds and amount bet.

What Is A Prop Bet For NCAA Football?
Although this may look like a totals bet because of the OVER/UNDER aspect, this is actually a prop. Short for proposition, this is a bet made on the occurrence or non-occurrence of certain player or team milestones that don’t necessarily correlate to the outcome of a game. In this case, you’re betting on whether the total number of wins for a specific team will be more or less than the oddsmaker’s set number.
