College Football Predictions - NCAA Bowl Wagering Lines

(20)Missouri Tigers vs (2)Oklahoma Sooners
8:00 PM ET, December 6, 2008
Arrowhead Stadium , Kansas City , MO
Big 12 Championship - ABC
Spread: Oklahoma -17

My Pick:  I don’t understand how Missouri fell from grace so quickly.  Sure they lost a couple games, but on paper these guys are one of the best teams in the country.  So whats with the huge spead???  Here are some stats for you.  QB-A: 75% comp rate, 3880 yds passing, 34 TD’s, 13 INT’s.  QB-B: 68% comp rate, 4080 yds passing, 46 TD’s, 6 INT’s.  RB-A: 152 carrys, 963 yds, 6.3 avg, 17 TD’s.  RB-B: 179 carrys, 1002 yds, 5.6 avg, 14 TD’s.  The A players are Chase Daniel and Derrick Washington and the B players are Sam Bradford and DeMarco Murray.  The point is that both teams stars are very comparable in stats which translates into the overall offense.  The only concern is Mizz U’s defense which will have to find a way to put pressure on Bradford and slow them down.  With the total at 79 you can expect alot of fireworks and I think that Daniel and co. are the real thing they just have a different style, but they can compete.  The -17 is an insult, take the Tigers and the points.

Betting on a point spread or money line is sometimes called betting "sides" - that is, betting that one side or the other will be the winner - while betting the over/under is referred to as betting "totals".

Before viewing the weekly NCAA football odds below read up on some of the ins and outs of booking college football bets and how these spreads can create profitable betting situations.

College Football Odds Explanation
The point spread - also called "the line" or "the spread" - is used as a margin to handicap the favorite team. For betting purposes, the oddsmaker predicts that the favored team will win by a certain number of points. This number of points is the point spread. The favorite is always indicated by a minus sign (e.g. -5.5) and the underdog by a plus sign (e.g.+5.5). If you bet on the favorite, you win your bet if the favorite wins AND their margin of victory is greater than the point spread. If you bet on the underdog, you win if the underdog wins,
ties, or if the favored team wins but fails to exceed the point spread. It is standard for point spread bets in most sports that you wager $110 to win $100.

A money line, used in baseball and hockey, takes the place of a point spread. Money line betting is simply wagering on the contest based on a given price rather than a point spread. The team wagered on has to win the game outright, regardless of the score. The minus sign (e.g.-130) always indicates the favorite and the amount you must bet to
win $100. The plus sign (e.g.+120) always indicates the underdog and the amount you win for every $100 bet. Using this example, therefore, you would bet $130 to win $100 on the favorite, while for the underdog you would bet $100 to win $120.

The over/under is the number of points oddsmakers expect will be the total score for the contest (both teams combined, overtime included). You bet on whether the total points scored will be more or less than this number. As with point spread bets, you must generally wager $110 to win $100.

HOW TO CHOOSE A REPUTABLE ONLINE SPORTSBOOK

When it comes to online sportsbooks you can choose from many. If you are a newcomer you might have a hard time choosing the right one. The good news is that lots of them are very reputable. Some have been in business for over 7 to 10 years and on the net for over 4 years, with a solid payout history.

Always check the injury report. Injuries are huge in nfl gambling and can mean the difference between a win and a loss.

Don’t be afraid to double up on Monday. If you are down and like the Monday game double your wager.

Keep your cool. Never chase your money. Meaning never wager on games because they are the only thing to place a wager on.

Control you bankroll. Set a certain amount you are going to bet and stick with that all season.

Start early. Usually the lines are a little looser in the beginning months of the season. So start your season with the nfl season.
