Big Ten and Pac 12 Bail Outs Change College Football Betting Dynamics

A clear difference is immediately apparent with two Power Five conferences postponing. Pac 12 and Big Ten football won’t happen this fall. Powerhouse favorites like Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan, and Oregon are off the board. As a result, the College football betting favorites are even more SEC-centric than normal. Alabama, LSU, Georgia, Florida, Auburn, and Texas A&M are all in the conversation. ACC power Clemson is top chalk to win the national championship. While Big 12 representation comes from Oklahoma and Texas. Let’s take a look at the new college football landscape for 2020.

Clemson Tigers +150

Although the Tigers play in the ACC, they are SEC in style and fan passion. Coach Dabo Swinney is a recruiting machine. Clemson annually ranks at the top of the recruiting rankings. Swinney’s culture is fully implemented. Specifically, it’s called “Our Kind of Guys.” Clemson doesn’t recruit as much as top recruits shop Clemson. Comparable to the rest of the ACC is no teams are a serious threat. Clemson can only lose to Clemson. And there is no history showing that’s going to happen.

Alabama Crimson Tide +425

In a similar way to Clemson are the Crimson Tide. Alabama is sought out by top players all over the land. Coach Nick Saban has a culture that has thrived for over a decade. And a roster so deep as to be a sports betting behemoth. Keep in mind that the Crimson Tide missed the 2019 College Football Playoff. Cause by this will be motivation for redemption. Problematic is the SEC. College football’s best conference is loaded with legitimate power contenders. Alabama reloads rather than rebuilds. Accordingly, gamblers flow to the Tide.

LSU Tigers +950

The defending national champions lost many key components from their 2019 dream team. Yet like Saban and Swinney does LSU coach Ed Orgeron recruit at an elite level. LSU is another team that reloads. So too do they have five-star recruits banging on their door. LSU will be a strong College football Betting program. But with so many new starters they’ll be very good instead of great.

Georgia Bulldogs +1075

Coach Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs are a team that could bring considerable value. Like Clemson, Alabama, and LSU Smart’s program has a boatload of five start talent. Since their overtime loss to Bama in the 2017 national championship game UGA has not quite measured elite. Due to recruiting the college football community rates the Bulldogs near par with the top brands. Georgia is fully capable of a National title but at a much better price.

Florida Gators +2000

In like manner to Georgia is their SEC East rival Florida. Coach Dan Mullen has gotten the Gators back on track after a lost decade. Kyle Trask has become a folk hero quarterback. Mullen was the offensive coordinator when Florida won two natty with Urban Meyer. Thus, he knows what it takes in Gainesville. The “Cocktail Party” between Georgia and Florida on November 7 is likely decisive.

Oklahoma Sooners +2500

Coach Lincoln Riley’s Sooners have been good enough to make the playoffs. By contrast, OU hasn’t measured up against the SEC and ACC powers. This year could be different. Correlate what should be a vastly improved defense.
