With the NBA and NHL seasons complete, we’ve entered the slow portion of the betting calendar. College football is still nearly two months from getting underway, but lines have been posted, and the alert bettor is always on the lookout for value, no matter the time of year.
The college football season officially gets underway on August 29th but many sportsbooks have begun posting lines for Week 1 games. The games still may be a ways away but here are five underdogs expected to make some noise in Week 1. Lines courtesy of BetOnline.
The start of the NFL season may still be three months away, but with players participating in OTAs it’s hard not to feel excited about this upcoming season. Looking ahead to Week 1, here are 10 games worth watching once the regular year gets underway.
The NFL regular season is still a ways away, but with lines beginning to trickle in at various sportsbooks there is no better time to begin trying to identify value.
The Falcons have lost 5 straight games to the Bears, but are the away favorites in this game mainly because of an offense that has a chance to by more than dynamic this season. NFL lines have the Falcons as 2.5-point favorites with a total of 40.5.
Man, could there be a better match up for the NFL’s opening game with the top 2 Super Bowl champions facing each other? I think not and in this game NFL lines has the home Packers as 4-point favorites over the Saints with a total of 47 points.

Game-day: 9/13/2009
Kick-off: 4:15 pm EST
The Redskins invade New York to take on the Giants in a game where the NFL betting no doubt will hot and heavy! The G-Men were one of the top teams in 2008 ATS, but without Plaxico Burress and with nobody stepping it up during the pre-season to take his spot, there is talk that quarterback Eli Manning is going to have a tough time getting the ball downfield.
Stability in the NFL usually trumps change, but this game will give that theory a good test. The Carolina Panthers return basically the same team which stunk out the stadium in a bizarre playoff loss to the Cardinals last January, while the Philadelphia Eagles come in after jettisoning their best back-7 defender (safety Brian Dawkins) and in the process of figuring out what to do with Michael Vick when the former dog torturer joins the team for active duty in Week 3.
