What Bowl Odds Can Do for You

The Arkansas Razorbacks appeared as the favorite in the 2022 edition of the Outback Bowl. But, unfortunately, the Penn State Nittany Lions were well below Arkansas’ 9-4 season record with a 7-6 final mark.

That put the Razorbacks ahead with a -230 moneyline, which meant that a $230 bet on Arkansas would allow bettors to make a $100 profit. On the other hand, bettors who favored the underdogs at a +250 moneyline saw their chance of making a $250 profit on a $100 bet fade away.

In the end, the Razorbacks took a 24-10 win against the Nittany Lions. Bettors who also took a chance at putting money on the under 43.5 and the +8.5 may have also nailed a solid profit.
