| While
there is a lot more that goes into college football handicapping
than just these tips below, they should be a good starting point
if you are just starting out handicapping college football. We have
listed 5 college football handicapping tips that you should take
note of and don't forget when you go to enter your college football
bets for the week. These college football handicapping tips are
just a small part of what it takes to be a winner season in and
season out.
Tip#1 - Do your homework
You have to understand that to be a successful college football
handicapper it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to your college
football handicapping. You must to be willing to put in countless
hours of handicapping going over stats, injuries, trends, weather,
ats, power ratings, etc, if you plan on having a prosperous college
football season.
Tip#2 - Always get the best
number
With a number of quality sportsbooks available now a days,
point spreads vary from sportsbook to sportsbook. It is imperative
to make sure you are always getting the best possible number available.
You wouldn't want to do a good job handicapping the game and end
getting a push or a loss just because your book didn't have the
best number. Always try to have a few different sportsbook accounts
funded at all times during the college football season, because
a 1/2 point can be the difference between a win and a push. Check
out our sportsbook
page for 4 quality sportsbooks with lines that often vary from
book to book.
Tip#3 - Straight up records
can be misleading
When doing your football handicapping, don't just judge a team by
their straight up record, see how they do against the spread. For
example Florida St. had a good record of 9-5 last year but they
were a wallet draining 5-9 against the spread, where as Idaho had
a horrible record of 2-10 last year but were one of the best money
teams against the spread with a record of 7-4 ATS. Don't be fooled
by a teams place in the standings because it can be deceiving to
their results against the spread. You can view the latest up to
date College Football ATS records here.
Tip#4 - Don't bet with your
heart
When doing your college football handicapping always bet with
your head not your heart. I know a lot of players do there college
football betting with their heart instead of handicapping the
stats. Just because your alma mater is playing doesn't mean that
they are a winning proposition this week.
Tip#5 - Forget about the
bad days
Don't let one horrible College football Saturday ruin your season.
Measure results based on the season not short term. Everyone is
going to have losing days, that is inevitable in this business.
Don't get distressed, stay focused and disciplined in your college
football handicapping and remember there is always next week.
While we could go on and on due
to time and space we will stop here. Remember college football
handicapping takes a lot of hard work and countless hours of handicapping
to be a winner. Some people don't have the time, effort, or skill
to handicap college football. There is no shame in using a sports
handicapping service to guide you to winning football bets. Feel
