NCAAF 2024 Bear Bryant Award Betting Odds

College football coaching may be the strangest job in sports.

One year you’re beloved by a university (think Gene Chizik at Auburn and Jimbo Fisher at Texas A&M), and the next year you’re the reason, or at least the scapegoat, for why your football and university failed.

Here at SportsBetting.ag, we have opening lines for the Bear Bryant Award, which is for the FBS Coach of the Year.

Additionally, we have updated lines for first coach fired, in which Billy Napier remains the favorite.

What’s ironic is that since coaching college football is such a volatile job, many coaches are on both lists.
