Looking for unique ways to get involved in the NFL betting market? You’ve come to the right place. Recently, we chronicled the Arizona Cardinals’ odds of potentially going 17-0, along with the rebuilding Detroit Lions’ prospects of finishing 0-17. Well, 24 hours after examining the Cardinals’ chance of going undefeated, Arizona went out and suffered its…
Remember when you were a kid and your mom told you roughly 27 times a week, “Don’t take candy from strangers!”? (Unless it’s Halloween, then take as much candy from strangers as you can get your grubby hands on.) Well, right now, NFL favorites are the creepy guy circling the neighborhood in a windowless van…
Rumor has it NFL Week 10 odds were delayed because oddsmakers were busy counting up all the cash they pocketed in Week 9. But that won’t stop bettors from coming back for more, even if this week’s slate is rather lousy. Among the limited “marquee” games: A Sunday night Sin City clash between the Kansas…
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…
The 2.0 version of the 2021 College Football Playoff rankings have been released, and per usual, the playoff committee’s rankings don’t exactly align with the perceptions of oddsmakers, let alone those who vote in the Associated Press Top 25 poll. With a full month to go before “Selection Sunday” on Dec. 5, so much can…
The New York sports betting market moved one step closer Monday to its online opening. The New York State Gaming Commission announced it has granted licenses to nine online sports betting operators, including some of the biggest names in the industry. Each will pay a steep 51 percent tax rate on revenue. This is the…
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.…
The AFC North is one of only two NFL divisions (along with the AFC West) to have every team at .500 or better heading into NFL Week 9. Does that mean the AFC North is completely up for grabs as the NFL’s first 18-week/17-game season reaches its midpoint? According to oddsmakers, the answer is “Yes” —…
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…
