Opening Betting Lines College Football
The Cardinals are the best road bet in college football over the last six seasons, going a remarkable 31-10 against the spread including a 3-1 ATS road record this season. However, oddsmakers opened the Cardinals as 2.5-point favorites at Army. Who sets the college football opening lines? Oddsmakers launch their opening lines as an educated guess at where they think the line will attract action on both sides. Early line movements usually indicate sharp action. Even though limits are small, sharps are the first ones thinking about opening lines.

Here’s the drill. Without looking, I take a guess on what the initial college football lines are going to be for Championship Week. The real lines are added after to see if there might be anything that appears to be way off.

Here’s the other twist – other random games during Championship Week. We get six Big Ten games along with the big championships and a few ACC and SEC matchups. The lines on the Big Ten aren’t announced yet, but I’ll guess anyway.
