Understanding NCAAF Point Spreads
If you bet on NCAAF odds, you’ll need to learn how the read betting odds first. Betting odds manifest as a decimal, a fraction, or in “American” format. This last format is when you see a positive number (e.g. +170) or a negative number (e.g. -200). These indicate how much you win on a $100 stake, and how much you need to stake to win $100, respectively.
Types of College Football Betting
Take away the point spreads and we have the moneyline or “straight-up” betting. This is where you bet on a team to win the game – as simple as that. Odds here can be tight, or so lopsided that the book may not even offer them.
As the most popular market on the college football odds, NCAAF point spreads are where you bet on a college football team to “cover” their point spread. The oddsmakers assign each team a spread, either to add points (underdog) or deduct points (favorite). The wager wins if the team wins the game after their spread is added or subtracted, thus “covering the spread.”
Betting on NCAAF total is when you bet on whether the total combined score of both teams of an specific NCAAF matchups and you will go over or under the oddsmakers’ totals. Simple.
A NCAAF parlay bet is where you place two or more bets into one ticket for a better payout. You choose various college football games, the more bets you place on a parlay, the higher the payout.
However, all bets in a parlay must win, you can’t lose even one, making this a high-risk high-reward option.
College football Teasers bets or “pleasers” are point spreads where bettors adjust the line. A teaser is when bettors add points to the spread, thus making it easier to win (in theory) for a smaller payout.
In contrast, an NCAAF pleaser is when bettors subtract points for a higher payout.
College football Future bets are usually in the form of outrights. This is when you bet on who you think will win the championship or the Heisman Trophy, among other things. It is best to keep track of the college football odds along with the latest news.

College Football Betting Odds Examples
As an example, if Alabama is listed at -350 on the moneyline, it means you will win $100 for every $350 bet you make. Consequently, their opponent, Georgia, is at +200. That means you will win $200 if you stake $100 on the team.
If converted to a decimal, Alabama’s -350 will become 1.29 meaning you win $29 plus your $100 stake for a total of $129 paid out. Georgia’s +200 becomes 3.00 meaning you get $300 in return for your $100 wager ($100 + $200 = $300).
Team | Point Spread |
---|---|
Alabama Crimson Tide | -350 |
Georgia Bulldogs | +200 |
Fractional, Alabama’s line will be 2/7 so you stake $700 and win $200 in return (or $350 stake for a $100 win). Georgia’s is 2/1 so a $200 return for a $100 bet.
