The college football Week 11 odds board includes a game that, at first blush, looks to be a blowout: Ohio State hosting Purdue. But as the past few weeks have shown, Purdue is the common denominator for killing College Football Playoff dreams. The Buckeyes hope to avoid the fate that previously befell Iowa and Michigan…
College football national championship odds are starting to percolate, now that there’s two weeks’ worth of College Football Playoff rankings to ponder. Per usual, the SEC will have a big say in who hoists the trophy Jan. 10. Unbeaten Georgia and one-loss Alabama are 1-2 in the latest CFP rankings. Not surprisingly, the Bulldogs and…
Key underdogs barked big in Week 8, surely making bookmakers eager to post NFL Week 9 odds. A huge three-week run for bettors came to an end, and the new 18-week season now reaches its midterm. A few games stand out this week, most notably two nonconference clashes: The Green Bay Packers visit the Kansas…
For the second straight weekend, MMA fans get a marquee event and a chance to see what happens when someone’s nose meets someone else’s knee. This week, UFC 268 odds take center stage on one of the world’s biggest stages, Madison Square Garden. Saturday’s main event pits welterweight champion Kamaru Usman against Colby Covington, and…
In poring over college football Week 10 odds, it’s clear that bookmakers still aren’t buying into Michigan State. Sure, the Spartans’ odds to win the Big Ten and their price in the College Football Playoff odds market are shortening. But fifth-ranked and unbeaten Michigan State opened as a mere 3-point road favorite against unranked Purdue.…
Week 9 of this 18-week NFL season has arrived, and Super Bowl odds continue to see noteworthy changes. The preseason favorite Kansas City Chiefs are no longer in the driver’s seat. In fact, the Super Bowl betting board would need to be a minivan for the Chiefs to still fit in the vehicle among the…
Bookmakers didn’t take a Week 6-type beating in Week 7 — in fact, some spots registered noteworthy wins, as did public bettors. But there’s no time to count money, with NFL Week 8 odds on the board. The game of the week might well have been the first one, with the Green Bay Packers topping…
One thing is readily apparent with college football Week 9 odds: They’re a helluva lot better than Week 8 odds. Last week, six potential College Football Playoff contenders were laying 21 or more points. (FWIW: Those teams went 5-1 SU, 3-3 ATS.) The spreads this week are much more palatable, including in a Big Ten…
If you’re a mixed martial arts fan, prepare to get punched in the face by big events on back-to-back weekends. This week, UFC 267 odds are the focal point, with a chock-full card set for Saturday in the United Arab Emirates. The main event pits light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz against veteran Glover Teixeira, and…
The World Series odds board is down to two teams, and neither is one of Major League Baseball’s three 100-win clubs from the regular season (Giants, Rays, and Dodgers). Nor does the World Series highlight any prominent teams from wealthy, tradition-rich coastal markets. In that respect, this best-of-seven matchup — with the Atlanta Braves and…
When PointsBet USA’s oddsmakers look at the 2021 World Series odds board, to say they very much like what they see would be an understatement. Gone are the three biggest liabilities, in the Cardinals, White Sox, and Giants. Gone, too, are the next two biggest liabilities. The Dodgers and Red Sox bowed out in the…
With Week 7 of the NFL season upon us, Super Bowl odds are seeing some noteworthy changes. The preseason favorite Kansas City Chiefs are no longer in the driver’s seat — in fact, they’re not even riding shotgun. Patrick Mahomes and Co. are backseat drivers to the Buffalo Bills and defending champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers.…
