There’s no doubt any College Football matchup is an exciting prospect but when you throw live betting in the mix, the fun goes up a level!
You know CFB betting and even
CFB betting strategies, but what about how to bet live?
It really is as simple as it sounds, when watching the game you can wager on who you think will win and even what happens next.
Want to understand live CFB betting? Glad you asked, Dimers has you covered. Here's our guide on how to live bet on College Football.
Placing your bet
CFB live betting is relatively similar to betting before kickoff. You can still place wagers on moneyline, point spreads, proposition bets, total and the usual go-to options. However, when you're engaging in live betting, it's important that you keep in mind
seven things to consider before betting on college football
so as to improve your chances of success.
Often you will be able to locate a live game through one of two ways; via a Bet Live section on your online sportsbook and/or betting app, or by clicking through to the CFB/NCAA Football category on the book’s site/app and locating the match from there.
The only differences are a swifter change of odds and a greater breadth of betting options for you to choose from. Also remember, all live bets are time sensitive — if you’re not as quick as Crimson Tide's Jaylen Waddle you may miss out!
Just another reason to consult our
responsible gambling
page to make sure that you play it safe when betting on football.
If you have never bet on NCAA Football, our CFB Bet Hub has the best live odds in the United States. When signing up to a sportsbook, use our
sportsbooks promotional codes
to access bonus bets.
Added options
Live betting exposes you to many options usually unavailable to the average bettor. The usual wagering options are available during a NCAA Football game, but there are added offerings once teams are on the gridiron:
Example:
- Next TD scorer
- Race to “X” Points
- Total TDs
- 1st Quarter points>
- Drive Result
- Play Result
With more options available to bettors, there is a greater opportunity for you to find real value, catch sportsbooks napping and capitalize on juicy odds. Deep thought isn’t as readily applied to live odds, so if you can be quick, you could be lucky!
Friendly reminder:
Every CFB matchup
on Dimers has live probabilities on prop bets like anytime and next TD scorer.
Constantly shifting odds
CFB odds are constantly changing within a game. They change based on the scoreline, momentum, injuries and drive results, amongst other things. This can make you wonder,
how do college football odds work? Understanding these ups and downs can be tricky, which is why we recommend you monitor Dimers’ live in-play probabilities during the game, and before you place any bet.
Our live technology — updating every 30 seconds — gives you real-time probabilities for betting the spread, total (over/under) and moneyline.
The live matchup and probabilities of any College Football game can be accessed through the scoreboards at the top of the Dimers website, the Live Now section and even the CFB section in Bet Hub. Check out some
best College Football bets.
Variables
As mentioned, there are many factors which influence a quick change in odds during a College Football game. It is nice to consider some of these variables before placing your bets.
Example:
- Injuries (Key players coming out can affect moneyline/spread particularly)
- Weather (Bad weather will affect scoring)
- Conditions (Is the game indoors, are teams used to weather/outdoors)
- Momentum
- Rest (Is one team off a short week?)
- Coaching style (Is the Head Coach a defensive or aggressive type)
These aspects should be kept in mind when live betting, and if used alongside our live probability calculator, you’re a chance to gain a leg up on your sportsbook.
College Football live betting represents one of the best ways to capitalize on great odds sportsbooks may have slept on. f you’re wondering
