Free College Football Picks Tips

When it comes to sports betting, bettors have a preference for their favorite sports to bet, for me, college football betting is my favorite. Statistics also show that many bettors placed college football on their favorite of uppermost part of sports betting favorites. Most bettors even say that they like college football better than NFL.

Some of the reasons are: (1) College football is far more massive than NFL, attracting more gambling enthusiasts with its 117 division teams. (2) College teams have big differences in terms of performances. This makes everything easier for gamblers to determine which team they will lay bets for. Most betting experts are almost certain about which team will make it and which do not deserve putting money on.

Nonetheless, there are still rules bettors must keep an eye on in order to succeed in this endeavor. Let us discuss today how to come up with profitable college football picks. Unlike NFL football picks, college football picks have pretty wide spreads - and for good reason. Since the margin between the best teams and the worst teams can really be a large gap. Unlike in professional football were any team can beat another team any given day of the week.

The spread explained

Spread betting was developed to create a larger market for betting in cases where there is an obvious mismatch between two opponents, commonly known as the favorites vs. the underdogs. But why would anyone in their right mind bet against the favorite? They must be the favorites for a reason. That's where the spread comes in. Instead of picking a straight-up winner or loser, a bettor bets on the point differential or point outcome in a game. Another way to call it is "handicapping." Basically, a point spread is given to the underdog, so that those betting for the underdogs have an even chance of winning. Bookmakers draw the lines for a game's "spread." A spread of 4 means that a favorite needs to win by more than 4 points for a bettor betting on them to win. If in any event the favorite wins by less than 4 points or outright loses, those who bet on the underdogs win instead.

Simple - but the devil is in the details

Seems simple enough eh? However once you take into consideration different factors such as playing condition, match scheduling, team rosters, injuries, coaches, winning or losing streaks, who plays at home and who's visiting, you'll arrive at a much more complicated system of bet.
