Betting Tips & Strategy
Find
the Best Betting Lines
This is perhaps
the most important online betting tip we can offer - shop for
the best possible odds from the online sportsbooks. There are
two ways to do this in our opinion:
1. Surf the
internet sportsbooks, register with as many as possible in order
to have access to their betting lines, and before placing any
wager, check each sportsbook's lines to see who offers the best
odds on a particular wager. Sounds like a lot of work, but nobody
said gambling was easy.
OR
2. Follow
our recommendation for the one sportsbook that consistently offers
the most competitive lines for betting on football - GameDay
Sportsbook & Casino. We've done our homework and nobody
comes close to the exceptional lines, customer service and fast
payouts offered by GameDay.

Don't
Give Away More Than a Touchdown in the NFL
It may work
in college football, but laying more than 7 points in the pros
is a sure fire way to empty your wallet. The difference in talent
between two college teams is often large enough to warrant giving
up double digits, but NFL matchups are rarely that lopsided.
Be
Selective
Be realistic
- what are the odds of you picking every game correctly on a given
week? Be selective and look for the 3 or 4 solid games that you
feel most strongly about having picked correctly. Don't try to
come up with a wager on every game, simply for the sake of having
some action going. And don't let the fact that a game is televised
influence your decision to pass on it. It is okay to watch
a game purely for the enjoyment of the sport
Look
for Value in Lesser Known College Teams
The oddsmakers
typically have a better feel for the college football programs
that are consistently in the top-20. Because of this fact, bargain
lines will be hard to come by for the "glamour" teams.
Look for games between some of the lesser-known programs when
shopping for good value betting lines.
Don't
Overreact to Blowouts
Quite often
after a rout (especially Monday Night games), casual bettors can't
wait to jump on the winner and against the loser the following
week. Don't fall into this trap - as the saying goes, "On
any given Sunday ..."
Don't
Be Scared to Lay Big Numbers in College
In college
football, there is a huge difference in talent level from one
program to the next. Don't be afraid to lay double digits - if
you've done your homework and it supports the numbers, don't hesitate
to play a big favorite.
Pay
Attention to Strength of Schedule
It happens
every year - in college and the NFL - teams post gaudy numbers
for several weeks in a row against inferior competition. Eventually,
they'll meet a tougher opponent, and chances are the line will
be over inflated due to public sentiment based on the team's previous
games. Pay as much attention to WHO a team has played as to HOW
a team has played.
