It's important to realize that college football handicapping requires a substantial amount of "homework" and a systematic approach to betting and money management. Successful football betting has its price and if you're not willing to pay it, stick with the office pools and stay away from the online sports books.

Good, now that you've decided you have what it takes to bet and win on college football, let's look out a few tried and true football betting tips designed to put more cash in your wallet.

1. It's a Long Season - Avoid Going for the Kill

Alway approach football betting in terms of an entire season or seasons. One or two losing weekends should never spell disaster - off weeks are an inevitable part of sports gambling. Successful bettors "grind out" their winnings over the course of the season. In other words, don't try for the big kill on one game - simply set your goals (and your money management systems) to win more games than you lose over the long haul.

2. Find Value Early in the Season

Look for moneyline and point spread values early in the season, before the odds makers have had a chance to "catch up" with which teams are hot and which teams are not. Start your football handicapping analysis during the summer so you'll be ready to take full advantage of the first few weeks of the season.

3. Focus on Quality, Not Quantity

Narrow your weekly betting choices down to no more than 5 - 7 games per week. It's a rare week when more than a few games will stand out as good wagering values. Find these games and you'll better your odds of winning more than you lose.

4. Shop For The Best Odds and Lines

With hundreds of online sportsbooks and more springing up every season, college football lines and point spreads will vary from casino to casino. Be certain that you are getting the best odds for your betting dollars. We've examined most of the online betting sites and have found that none consistently match the quality service and excellent betting lines offered by GameDay Sportsbook and Casino.

5. History Does Not Always Repeat Itself

Basically, there are three types of handicapping - Objective, Emotional and Historical. Objective handicapping analyzes the current strengths, weaknesses, and overall talent of a team. Emotional handicapping looks at factors such as let-downs after a big game, looking ahead to a huge rivalry game, and payback to a team that rubbed it in late in last year's game. Historical handicapping is based on past performances and things like a team having a record of 12 and 1 against the spread in their last 13 games on turf.

Focus primarily on Objective and Emotional analysis - these are the truest indicators of a teams current level of performance. Historical handicapping has a way of jumping up and biting you as soon as you lay down a huge wad based on some ridiculous set of stats.

Never put too much stock in a team's performance in a single game. Much to the bookmakers' delight, most gamblers are enticed by a team who looked great the previous week. The oddsmakers will adjust the lines to reflect this effect, and in the process the team in question will have poor line value. Plus, last week's "great" team usually comes back down to earth the following week and fails to cover.

Two-Team Parlay Strategy

Try this football betting strategy for 2-team parlays this season. Play at least one such parlay per week at $200 per bet. When you win, it pays back $720.

(2.6 x $200 = $520 + your $200 bet = $720)

Assuming you bet 18 such parlays over the course of the football season, you only need to win five times to break even. Every bet you win over 5 equals a $720 profit.

Win just 50% and you make $2880 betting on football this season.

Straight Bet Strategy

Start with a $2,000 bankroll. Play three games at $110 each bet for each week for the season...54 bets. Expect to win 30 for a 55.5% win percentage. Bet the same amount, $110, each game. A win returns $100 plus amount bet ($110): $210

  • 29-25 (53.7%) is the minimum number of games you need to win to make a profit. You have $2150 for a $150 (7.5%) profit at the end of the season.
  • 30-24 (55.5%) you have $2360 at the end of the season. You make a $360 (18%) profit on your $2,000 bankroll.
  • 33-21 (60%) means you end up with $2990 for a $990 (49.5%) profit for the season on your $2000 bankroll.

Money Line Betting

Here's our money line strategy, $2,000 bankroll Bet $200 on one game each week. We expect to win 12 and lose 4 with an average return of $350 per win which includes return of our bet. 12 wins at $150 = $1,800 and 4 loses at $200 = ($800) = $1,000 profit on your $2,000 bankroll.
