Saturday is for college football. It’s also for betting. But every day can be for betting. Not every day can be for college football. It’s a good time to do both, and there are plenty of opportunities with which to take advantage. Let’s take a look at where the public money has gone so far, not only when it comes to the college gridiron but also UFC later tonight and the NFL tomorrow.
NCAAF: BYU Cougars -23 over South Florida Bulls
Bettors’ favorite NCAAF play of the Saturday night slate is on BYU to cover a huge spread against South Florida. The Cougars at -23 are inspiring 91 percent of the handle and 87 percent of the bets. There isn’t any value whatsoever on the -2000 money line, but for whatever it’s worth 94 percent of the handle and 98 percent of the wagers are supporting BYU to win straight up.
