NCAAF Betting News & Analysis
Betting on college football offers a thrilling and unique experience compared to its professional NFL counterpart. The sheer unpredictability and emotional investment of backing schools puts NCAAF betting over the top. A massive amount of teams, and many players being teenagers, presents a significant variance in team strengths. NCAAF betting offers distinctive challenges and opportunities for bettors.
The main betting markets in College Football betting are the spread, moneyline, and totals (over/under). Unlike in the NFL, where the talent level is controlled by the salary cap and the draft, college games can see powerhouse teams - like Georgia - facing much weaker opponents - like the University of Alabama-Birmingham. These matchups create a different dynamic for spread and over/under bets.

College Football Betting News FAQ
What is a totals bet in college football?
A totals bet in college football is a wager on the combined number of points scored in a game. You bet on whether the total points will go over or under a set number. If the total in a Cincinnati vs Michigan game is 58, and Cincinnati wins 34-30, the “over” wins as both teams combined to score more than 58 points. If Cincinnati wins 34-23, the under wins.
How do point spreads work in college football?
Point spreads in college football are wagers on the margin of victory. If Alabama is -2.5 against Georgia, then the Bulldogs have to win by 3 points or more in order to cover the spread, and win the bet. If Georgia loses by one (1) or two (2) points or wins the game outright, anyone who bet on Georgia wins their wager.
