College Football Santa Clause

After what has become one of the worst NCAAF seasons in the game’s history, the college football playoffs and bowl game matchups are finally here.

As you can tell by the odds listed above, Alabama is the heavy favorite to make the 2021 National Championship with their -1400 odds over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. This comes as no surprise considering Clemson just rolled over Notre Dame (34-10) in the ACC Championship.

Many college football fans were upset about overriding Texas A&M (9-1) and Cincinnati (9-0) in favor of Notre Dame coming off a blowout loss. However, it is done now, and the argument for expanding the CFP has intensified. 

Betting on college football and the postseason is legal with 18+ offshore sportsbooks that cater to US players. While many states now have domestic sports betting options, it is often hard to find sportsbooks that will accept bets from players under 21. 

18+ online sportsbooks also offer betting lines on other sporting leagues, including the NFL, MLS, MLB, NHL, and NCAA. In addition to these sports, you will also find betting lines on everything from professional darts to Olympic betting. 

As most Americans are patiently waiting for 2020 to be in the rearview mirror, betting on sports could be a saving grace for some. After many leagues were forced to opt-out or play a reduced schedule due to the Coronavirus, sports betting is back in full swing; after all, ’tis the season.
