NCAA Football Week 1 Betting
The two day online bookies should be promoting NCAA Football Week 1 betting is Friday and Saturday. Check out which games and why for each day below.
Friday, August 31
Western Kentucky +35 at Wisconsin Badgers -35
Wisconsin should have one of the top offenses in the nation. The Badgers must replace almost every player from last year’s starting defense.
So far, handicappers can’t decide on either laying or taking the points. It’s an even 50%-50% split.
That’s music to a bookie’s ears. As always, bookies should use their layoff accounts if one side garners more action than the other.
Saturday, Sep. 1
Houston -25.5 at Rice +25.5
Here’s another game where bettors haven’t decided who’s best against the spread. Houston is a huge favorite, but the Cougars are a different team this season than the one from 2016.
Rice could be better this season than they were last season.
Pay per head agents shouldn’t have to use their layoff accounts to even out money on this game. If they wish to promote action, lower the betting odds on Houston to -25. That should excite Houston bettors of which there should be more than Rice betttors.
Washington +2 vs Auburn -2
The most highly anticipated matchup in College Football Week 1 also presents a handicapping challenge. Neither team has a huge edge on the field. Neither team is that great at covering the spread. 60% of handicappers do favor Auburn, though.
If bettors overplay Auburn, per head agents could use their layoff accounts. Or, they could allow money on Auburn to ride.
If Washington beats Auburn SU, or only loses by a point, online bookies that let money on Auburn ride could make way more profit than if they had used their layoff accounts.
Brigham Young +11 at Arizona -11
54% of handicappers want the points on the Brigham Young Cougars. If bettors over wager BYU in your book, you should consider allowing the money to ride through the game. Don’t go straight to your layoff account.
Arizona has a chance to blow out BYU because their quarterback, Khalil Tate, will dominate. Also, BYU is rebuilding while Arizona’s players are experienced.
College football is back—get started with these matchups for the NCAA Football Week 1 betting.
