[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)<br>The college football world was hoping for a March Madness type of feel for the [first-ever](https://pittsburghpenguinsclub.com/read-blog/11804_tennessee-sports-betting-top-4-legal-betting-sites-in-2024.html) 12-team College Football Playoff, with upsets galore. Instead, the 4 first-round [matchups](https://dev.fleeped.com/read-blog/55_best-u-s-sports-betting-sites-amp-sportsbooks-for-2024.html) underwhelmed, providing lots of time for holiday shopping. Favorites went a perfect 4-0 against the spread, consisting of 3 fairly non-competitive efficiencies by underdogs Indiana, SMU and Tennessee. Sportsbooks and the public do not appear to think so. At least in 2 cases.<br>[bit.ly](https://bit.ly/Bet9jaPromotionCodeYOHAIG)

<br>Both [Penn State-Boise](https://www.9iii9.com/read-blog/957_just-how-much-are-americans-spending-on-sports-betting.html) State and Texas-Arizona State feature double-digit spreads [preferring](https://almightyblondeone.com/index.php/User:PhoebeTeague234) the [lower-seeded Nittany](https://sensualmarketplace.com/read-blog/6745_just-how-much-are-americans-investing-in-sports-betting.html) Lions and Longhorns. And the latter has actually been an especially popular pick with the public. The Longhorns -12.5 is the most-bet side at BetMGM nationally in regards to overall dollars since Monday [afternoon](http://woorichat.com/read-blog/10320_warner-bros-discovery-sets-stage-for-potential-cable-deal-by.html).<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)

<br>"All the money is being available in on Texas," Seamus Magee, a BetMGM trader, wrote in a text to The Athletic. "We need Arizona State to cover +13.5."<br>
|
||||
<br>The enthusiasm for the Longhorns reaches the futures market also. Bear in mind that enormous $1.5 million wager on Texas to win it all at +390 chances? The ticket is still out there at Caesars Sportsbook.<br>
|
||||
<br>Interestingly, the [Longhorns'](https://sportify.brandnitions.com/read-blog/20_enhance-your-business-opportunities-with-efficient-sports-apps.html) challenger, [Arizona](https://oeclub.org/index.php/User:KatriceLuu27) State - the biggest underdog amongst the College Football quarterfinal matches - is getting the most like from sharp bettors. The Athletic spoke with numerous bookies who had taken sharp action on No. 4 Arizona State - which had gotten as high as a 14-point underdog at some books against No. 5 Texas - to push the line down to -12.5 or -12.<br>
|
||||
<br>John Murray, the executive director at The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, informed us he [received](https://olps.co.za/wiki/User:RoryKirsova456) a wager on [Arizona](https://ai.holiday/read-blog/12051_sports-minister-tracey-crouch-resigns-over-039-hold-up-039-to-betting-crackdown.html) State +13.5 from a "very highly regarded player."<br>
|
||||
<br>Although reputable cash has actually come in on [Arizona](https://surgiteams.com/index.php/User:ZDYMeagan1984957) State to cover, sportsbooks will likely [require](https://twoplustwoequal.com/read-blog/58995_just-how-much-are-americans-investing-in-sports-betting.html) the Sun Devils to do just that, as public gamblers are overdoing Texas.<br>
|
||||
<br>"We would love to see ASU cover, and after that 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 game in the area. We chatted with several [bookies](https://tweecampus.com/read-blog/116758_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-us-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) to break down where the wagering action is on the other three Football quarterfinal matches. 6 Penn State (-11, 53) at No. 3 Boise State<br>
|
||||
<br>This video game opened Penn State -10.5 at most sportsbooks and has actually crept up somewhat to a consensus of -11. [sports betting](https://socialsnug.net/read-blog/8156_compare-amp-review-oddsjet-de.html) on the spread is relatively split at the majority of sportsbooks. The total dollars wagered varies by book, as 52% of bets and 79% of the money at BetMGM nationally are on Boise State -11, while 56% of bets however only 42% of the cash at DraftKings is on Boise State -11.5. Penn State to cover is [presently](https://www.ayuujk.com/read-blog/93_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-united-states-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) the 2nd most [popular CFP](https://netgork.com/read-blog/112801_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-united-states-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) wager in terms of total tickets at BetMGM books.<br>
|
||||
<br>"We opened Penn State -10.5 and are resting on Penn State -11," Thomas Gable, [sportsbook director](https://napvibe.com/read-blog/3178_sports-minister-tracey-crouch-resigns-over-039-hold-up-039-to-betting-crackdown.html) at The Borgata in Atlantic City, informed The Athletic. "I wouldn't be amazed if this line sneaks up a bit more before kickoff, but I presently invite any Boise State cash."<br>
|
||||
<br>Ohio State got the Oregon 2nd [opportunity](https://catvcommunity.com.tr/read-blog/4477_things-you-need-to-learn-about-rafting-adventures.html) it desired. Are the Buckeyes ready for revenge?<br>
|
||||
<br>No. 8 Ohio State (-2.5, 55.5) vs. No. 1 Oregon<br>
|
||||
<br>Perhaps most surprising to the public is that No. 1 seed Oregon is an underdog versus No. 8 Ohio State. These groups fulfilled back on Oct. 7 in Eugene, and Oregon won 32-31 as a 3.5-point home dog.<br>
|
||||
<br>So why is OSU preferred?<br>
|
||||
<br>Several [oddsmakers](https://globalairgunner.com/read-blog/20059_warner-bros-discovery-sets-stage-for-potential-cable-deal-by.html) The Athletic spoke with before the CFP preliminary had Ohio State atop their power rankings, and the lookahead lines for this [theoretical match](https://finance.azberg.ru/read-blog/2641_score-big-wins-how-sports-betting-software-drives-growth-and-engagement.html) were Ohio State -1 or -1.5. One oddsmaker discussed that Ohio State playing up to its power score in its dominant first-round win over Tennessee also shaped his opening line.<br>
|
||||
<br>Ohio State opened as a 1- or 1.5-point favorite (depending on the sportsbook) in this video game before highly regarded cash pushed it to the [current](https://peekz.eu/read-blog/251_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-us-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) line of -2.5. A a little greater majority of wagers at several sportsbooks, roughly 60%, are on the Ducks to cover, while near 60% of the cash has been available in on the Buckeyes. This will likely be the highest-handle game of the four come kickoff.<br>
|
||||
<br>"We did take some respected money at -1.5, rapidly went to -2.5 where it's stayed," Gable said. "It's good two-way action at that number today. The total has gone up 3 points from 52.5 to 55.5, which has been the most significant relocation of any of the totals. Money has all been on the over up until now.<br>
|
||||
<br>Joe Brennan, the CEO of Prime [sports betting](https://wiki.ragnaworld.net/index.php?title=User:DONChasity), a sportsbook in Ohio and New Jersey that caters to sharp bettors, told The Athletic that "Ohio State opened as a 1-point preferred, and immediately our Ohio gamblers thought we were too low. Our opening rate of Ohio State -1 has been increased to -2.5 and the total from 52 to 55."<br>
|
||||
<br>He did note, however, that the book had seen substantial buyback at the current 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 second round<br>
|
||||
<br>No. 7 Notre Dame vs. No. 2 Georgia (-1, 45)<br>
|
||||
<br>The favorite turned in this 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 triggered the line turn? Simply put, the wagering action.<br>
|
||||
<br>Although Georgia's starting QB Carson Beck is out for the season and has been replaced by relative unknown Gunner Stockton, wagerers are gravitating toward the Bulldogs.<br>
|
||||
<br>Georgia to cover is the most popular versus the spread wager at BetMGM books nationally in terms of ticket count (second-most popular by total dollars wagered), and it has actually been "one-way traffic on Georgia," according to Magee. Nearly 70% of bets are on the Bulldogs at numerous sportsbooks.<br>
