Sports Betting News - September 5th, 2009 - Written by Glen
BetUS, one of the leading online sportsbooks, is one of the few online sportsbooks offering player proposition bets this early in the season. These bets are focusing on the quarterbacks, and each one is offering safe odds for even frugal bettors. Players who have not opened an account with BetUS will find a 50% match bonus to fuel their proposition betting for the NCAA football season.
One of the biggest games this Saturday is the game between Virginia Tech and Alabama. Both quarterbacks have a line associated with their play. Tyrod Taylor is set at -145 for throwing a interception, while he has +115 for a touchdown pass. The rules state that players are betting on which will occur first. If Taylor throws a touchdown before he throws an interception, the pay out will be +115. Greg McElroy has a similar line, but his pays -115 regardless of which comes first, an interception or touchdown.
In the Nevada and Notre Dame game, a similar line is in place. Will Colin Kaepernick throw a touchdown before an interception? Odds makers have seen this as a likely event, and Kaerpernick has +115 odds on the interception, while holding -145 odds on the touchdown. Conversely, Clausen runs a -240 on the touchdown, with +180 on the interception. Whichever occurs first for either line will pay the money.
Georgia and Oklahoma state will also meet on the field, and the question remains - interception before touchdown, or the other way around? Zac Robinson is listed at +160 for the interception and -200 for the touchdown. Joe Cox is running +135 for the interception, and holds -165 for the touchdown pass. Oklahoma state is expected to score first, so this line can go either way.
Moving down the line, we have LSU and Washington. Jake Locker is set with -115 for the touchdown or the interception, while Jordan Jhrow has -200 for the touchdown and +160 for the interception.
These lines and more player props exist through BetUS, the premier online sportsbook. All of the college games, all of the NFL games, each one with their own set of betting lines.
