<br>The college football world was wishing for a March Madness kind of feel for the first-ever 12-team College Football Playoff, with upsets galore. Instead, the four first-round matchups underwhelmed, [providing](https://lubuzz.com/read-blog/89_how-to-attract-users-to-my-fantasy-sports-platform.html) lots of time for vacation shopping. Favorites went a best 4-0 against the spread, including 3 [fairly non-competitive](https://oolibuzz.com/read-blog/41745_warner-bros-discovery-sets-stage-for-potential-cable-deal-by.html) efficiencies by [underdogs](https://ai.ceo/read-blog/244298_how-fantasy-betting-app-development-companies-and-sports-developers.html) Indiana, SMU and Tennessee. Sportsbooks and the general public do not appear to believe so. A minimum of in 2 cases.<br>

<br>Both Penn State-Boise State and Texas-Arizona State function double-digit spreads favoring the lower-seeded Nittany Lions and Longhorns. And the latter has actually been a specifically [popular choice](https://younetwork.app/read-blog/8721_things-you-need-to-understand-about-rafting-adventures.html) with the general public. The Longhorns -12.5 is the most-bet side at BetMGM nationally in terms of overall dollars since Monday afternoon.<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)
|
||||
<br>"All the cash is coming in on Texas," Seamus Magee, a BetMGM trader, wrote in a text message to The Athletic. "We require Arizona State to cover +13.5."<br>
|
||||
<br>The interest for the [Longhorns encompasses](https://www.heesah.com/read-blog/2290_how-to-attract-users-to-my-fantasy-sports-platform.html) the [futures](https://tottenhamhotspurfansclub.com/read-blog/7108_begin-winning-with-pcg-college-football-picks.html) market too. [Remember](https://www.ayuujk.com/read-blog/93_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-united-states-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) that huge $1.5 million wager on Texas to win everything at +390 odds? The ticket is still out there at [Caesars Sportsbook](https://inicknet.com/read-blog/2177_the-ins-and-outs-of-betting-on-the-nfl-draft.html).<br>
|
||||
<br>Interestingly, the [Longhorns'](https://hcsxy2024.com/read-blog/2064_the-ins-and-outs-of-betting-on-the-nfl-draft.html) opponent, Arizona State - the biggest underdog amongst the College Football quarterfinal matchups - is getting the most love from sharp bettors. The Athletic talked to several bookmakers who had actually taken sharp action on No. 4 [Arizona](https://oolibuzz.com/read-blog/41666_for-sports-gambling-to-be-legalised.html) State - which had gotten as high as a 14-point underdog at some books against No. 5 [Texas -](https://younivix.com/read-blog/29941_sports-minister-tracey-crouch-resigns-over-039-hold-up-039-to-betting-crackdown.html) to push the line to -12.5 or -12.<br>
|
||||
<br>John Murray, the executive director at The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, informed us he [received](https://origintraffic.com/read-blog/1685_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-united-states-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) a wager on Arizona State +13.5 from a "very respected player."<br>
|
||||
<br>Even though highly regarded cash has actually come in on Arizona State to cover, sportsbooks will likely require the Sun Devils to do just that, as public gamblers are overdoing Texas.<br>
|
||||
<br>"We would enjoy to see ASU cover, and then Texas win the video game, so we get our Arizona State liability off the futures book," Magee added.<br>
|
||||
<br>While the Texas video game will be huge for the books, it isn't the only video game in the area. We talked with several [bookmakers](https://surgiteams.com/index.php/User:DrewYvi672) to break down where the [sports betting](http://yijichain.com/read-blog/15075_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-us-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) action is on the other 3 College Football quarterfinal matches. 6 Penn State (-11, 53) at No. 3 Boise State<br>
|
||||
<br>This video game opened Penn State -10.5 at a lot of sportsbooks and has approached a little to a consensus of -11. [sports betting](https://aijoining.com/read-blog/239_tennessee-sports-betting-top-4-legal-betting-sites-in-2024.html) on the spread is [fairly split](https://www.proathletediscuss.com/read-blog/450_online-betting-firms-gamble-on-soccer-mad-nigeria.html) at most [sportsbooks](https://unightlifetalk.site/read-blog/2627_just-how-much-are-americans-investing-in-sports-betting.html). The overall [dollars bet](https://www.womplaz.com/read-blog/88_the-ins-and-outs-of-betting-on-the-nfl-draft.html) varies by book, as 52% of bets and 79% of the cash at [BetMGM nationally](https://seenoor.com/read-blog/415_sports-minister-tracey-crouch-resigns-over-039-delay-039-to-betting-crackdown.html) are on Boise State -11, while 56% of bets but only 42% of the cash at [DraftKings](https://wiki.monnaie-libre.fr/wiki/Utilisateur:DemetriaBurkett) is on Boise State -11.5. Penn State to cover is presently the 2nd most popular CFP wager in terms of overall [tickets](https://cosplaybook.de/read-blog/7041_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-us-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) at [BetMGM books](https://krazzykross.com/read-blog/1529_how-to-withdraw-from-bet9ja-8-step-guide-to-cash-in-your-wins.html).<br>
|
||||
<br>"We opened Penn State -10.5 and are sitting on Penn State -11," Thomas Gable, sportsbook director at The Borgata in Atlantic City, told The Athletic. "I wouldn't be shocked if this line sneaks up a bit more before kickoff, however I presently invite any Boise State money."<br>

<br>Ohio State got the Oregon 2nd chance it wanted. Are the Buckeyes prepared for [revenge](https://connectingsparks.com/read-blog/25076_sport-betting-industry-aims-to-protect-itself.html)?<br>
|
||||
<br>No. 8 Ohio State (-2.5, 55.5) vs. No. 1 Oregon<br>
|
||||
<br>Perhaps most unexpected to the general public is that No. 1 seed Oregon is an underdog against No. 8 Ohio State. These groups fulfilled back on Oct. 7 in Eugene, and Oregon won 32-31 as a 3.5-point home pet dog.<br>
|
||||
<br>So why is OSU preferred?<br>
|
||||
<br>Several oddsmakers The to before the CFP very first round had Ohio State atop their power rankings, and the lookahead lines for this theoretical match were Ohio State -1 or -1.5. One oddsmaker pointed out that Ohio State playing up to its power score in its dominant first-round win over Tennessee likewise shaped his opening line.<br>
|
||||
<br>Ohio State opened as a 1- or 1.5-point favorite (depending upon the sportsbook) in this game before reputable cash pressed it to the current line of -2.5. A slightly greater [majority](https://forum.subchems.com/read-blog/3854_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-us-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) of wagers at [numerous](https://unightlifetalk.site/read-blog/2627_just-how-much-are-americans-investing-in-sports-betting.html) sportsbooks, [roughly](https://issosyal.com/read-blog/10050_just-how-much-are-americans-investing-in-sports-betting.html) 60%, are on the Ducks to cover, while close to 60% of the cash has actually been available in on the Buckeyes. This will likely be the highest-handle game of the 4 come kickoff.<br>
|
||||
<br>"We did take some highly regarded money at -1.5, rapidly went to -2.5 where it's stayed," Gable stated. "It's good two-way action at that number right now. The overall has actually increased 3 points from 52.5 to 55.5, which has actually been the most significant move of any of the overalls. Money has all been on the over so far.<br>
|
||||
<br>Joe Brennan, the CEO of Prime [sports betting](https://grade1d.smaportal.ae/read-blog/2402_sport-betting-industry-looks-to-protect-itself.html), a sportsbook in Ohio and New Jersey that caters to sharp bettors, informed The Athletic that "Ohio State opened as a 1-point preferred, and instantly our Ohio bettors thought we were too low. Our opening price of Ohio State -1 has actually been increased to -2.5 and the overall from 52 to 55."<br>
|
||||
<br>He did note, however, that the book had actually seen significant buyback at the present line of Ohio State -2.5 which 52% of the overall dollars at his book were taking the points with the Ducks.<br>
|
||||
<br>GO DEEPER<br>
|
||||
<br>The most likely upsets for the College Football Playoff's 2nd round<br>
|
||||
<br>No. 7 Notre Dame vs. No. 2 Georgia (-1, 45)<br>
|
||||
<br>The preferred flipped in this video game, as Notre Dame opened a 1.5-point preferred and is presently a 1- or 1.5-point underdog at sportsbooks.<br>

<br>What caused the line turn? Put simply, the wagering action.<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)
|
||||
<br>Despite the fact that Georgia's beginning QB Carson Beck is out for the season and has been changed by relative unknown Gunner Stockton, gamblers are gravitating toward the Bulldogs.<br>
|
||||
<br>Georgia to cover is the most popular versus the spread wager at BetMGM books nationally in regards to ticket count (second-most popular by total dollars wagered), and it has been "one-way traffic on Georgia," according to Magee. Nearly 70% of bets are on the Bulldogs at several sportsbooks.<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)
