Online NCAA Football WageringNCAA football wagering is a great way to spice up the already exciting world of college football. Until recently, NCAA football wagering, if you didn't live in Nevada or near Atlantic City, could be problematic. Local bookmakers can be shady at best and since the practice is illegal, there was really no recourse for you if your bookmaker didn't pay up. Additionally, although friendly wagers among coworkers, friends and family can be fun, there is only so much money to be made from these people. That is where online college football wagering comes in. It is legal in most areas, isn't prosecuted in the areas where it isn't legal; it is fun, and you have a variety of reputable online sites that you can deal with.There are three basic ways to participate in online college football wagering; that is, there are basically three types of bets you can place. They are: straight bets, totals (over/under), and money line wagers. Each of these bets is a little bit different and which you choose is largely a matter of strategy or personal preference.

You are basically betting against the house based on the point spread or wagering lines. For example, pretend that Texas is favored to win over Oregon by 7 points. If you bet on Texas to win, that means Texas has to win by more than 7 points for you to win your bet. If Texas wins by 7 points, you push and no money changes hand, if Texas wins by less than 7 points or loses the game, then you lose your money. Unless otherwise stated, you generally need to bet $110 to win $100 in this type of bet. 2011 BCS Betting Odds and BCS Bowl Predictions from expert college football picks capper Reno Gold!
