You’ll find NCAAF odds at all legal college football betting sites. 

NCAA football odds are displayed in the American format. Deciphering American odds can be tricky for new bettors.  

A negative value with a minus side denotes the favorite, while a positive value with a plus sign indicates the underdog.

College football betting lines follow the three main betting lines: moneyline, spread, and over/under. You’ll have a core number of bets to choose from in a single college football game. Bet on the outcome, the total points, or the point spread.

You can also bet on futures and back the winner of the conference months in advance. 

For an individual game, you may find half a dozen different markets. Some bookmakers may also offer player props—unique markets on specific football stars. You may also find odds on individual player performances or the winner of the Heisman Trophy.

College football prop betting is allowed in some states. However, some restrictions still apply, and NCAA football betting rules change a little from state to state.

In some cases, you can bet on any college team playing anywhere in the country, even in its own home state. Some states, however, have banned betting on in-sate college football teams. Some states prohibit certain bets, such as in-play markets or player props (bets centered around specific stars).

Props are special bets on specific outcomes during the game. Oftentimes, a prop will have little impact on the end score.

Prop bets can relate to a team’s score during the first quarter, the first team to score, or even the highest-scoring player. Some props can also include the winner of the coin toss. You can usually combine props to increase your odds.

Popular college football props include:

• 1st Team To 10 Points
• 1st Team to 20 Points
• Time of 1st Score (Over/Under)
• Team to Score First Touchdown
• Game to Go into Overtime (Y/N)
• Player to Score Most Touchdowns
• Scoreless Quarter (Y/N)
• Combo Prop Bets
• Moneyline prediction & Both Teams to Score 10+ Points
• Moneyline prediction & Both Teams to Score 20+ Points
• Time of 1st Score (Over/Under) / Team to Win

College football may not have the money or superstars of the NFL, but it’s still competed by some of the strongest sporting teams anywhere in the world. Many NCAA football stars go on to shine in the professional NFL.

College football teams compete in the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) leagues, of which there are three groupings: Division I, Division II, and Division III. Division I is then broken into two different levels: Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) and the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS).

There are 130 teams in the FBS, divided into 10 conferences:

• American Athletic Conference
• Atlantic Coast Conference
• Big 12 Conference
• Big Ten Conference
• Conference USA
• Mid-American Conference
• Mountain West Conference
• Pac-12 Conference
• SEC
• Sun Belt Conference

Some schools compete as independents (not part of any conference).

The Top 25 schools are ranked each week during the season by the College Football Playoff committee. At the end of the regular season, the CFP will assign teams to a playoff bracket to set up the very first 12-team postseason. Those 12 teams will compete for a chance at the National Championship.
