We’re finally here. It’s the 2020-2021 bowl season and College Football Playoff, the stripped down version.

Opening Lines in college football are typically set on Sunday afternoons in the current week and you usually see immediate action cause line movement. Dec 13, 2020 The early college football lines and odds are out for Championship Week. Where are the values? Pete Fiutak @PeteFiutak Here's the drill. Without looking, I take a guess on what the initial college. Get the latest betting odds & lines at BetOnline Sportsbook for betting on your favorite sport and snag a huge sign-up bonus.

A slew of bowls aren’t happening, a bunch of teams decided to opt out, and now it all starts up Monday with a crazy sprint over the next 11 days before getting the New Year’s Day.

As always, I make a call on what I think early line is – without looking – and then add them in after. Why? Where are the possible discrepancies to see how far off the original thoughts really are.

(BTW, usually I’m relatively close to the pin, but after going through and doing this, either I’m WAY off – totally possible – or there are some incredible early values.)

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.
