Having success on the college football gridiron can bring positive publicity to the program. It also brings poachers from other school’s looking to raid the cupboard. Welcome to today’s CFB landscape, Liberty.

If the college football playoff quarterfinal contest between the Ohio State Buckeyes and Oregon Ducks is anything like the regular season meeting, fans are in for a treat. The Ducks have won all 13 games by an average of 18.1 points but played their closest contest of the season when they beat OSU, 32-31, in Week 7. This neutral site contest takes place at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena and kick... 

The Big 12 was depleted by the departure of Texas and Oklahoma leaving Arizona State to rise from the rubble as the conference’s champion. The Sun Devils beat Iowa State, 45-19, to claim the title in its first season and earn the No.4 seed in the college football playoff. ASU will take on former Big 12 member Texas, who advanced with a dominant win over Clemson in the first round, in a CFP quarterfinal at the Peach Bowl on New Year’s Day. The game is set to kickoff at 1 p.m. ET. If you bet on the CFB using bitcoin and the Sun Devils in particular, you’ve made a lot of coin.

The College Football Playoff committee took a beating in the first round when all four games were decided by double-figures. Some questioned the inclusion of SMU and Indiana and those teams didn’t do the committee any favors in getting blown out of the tournament. The Boise State Broncos earned the No. 3 seed as the highest ranked G5 squad with its only loss on a last second field goal at Oregon earlier in the season. BSU faces the Penn State Nittany Lions in the first CFP quarterfinal game on N... 

The last second round College Football Playoff matchup will be determined with the outcome of the Tennessee Volunteers at Ohio State Buckeyes game, which will kickoff at 8 p.m. ET on Saturday night from Ohio Stadium in Columbus.

The setback cost them a chance at the Big Ten title but worse than that it was their fourth straight loss to the team up north. The Vols and Buckeyes both went 10-2 and possess high... 

With two teams having punched their ticket to the second round of the College Football Playoff, the second half of the bracket gets underway on Saturday afternoon when the Clemson Tigers visit the Texas Longhorns at 4 p.m. ET from Darrel K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin.

It’s the dawn of a new era in college football with the expanded College Football Playoff getting started on Friday, Dec. 20 with a first-round matchup between the Indiana Hoosiers and Notre Dame Fighting Irish. The game kicks off at 8 p.m. ET from Notre Dame Stadium and will air on ABC/ESPN. Both teams finished the regular season with identical 11-1 records, but the Irish got a higher seed blowing out every opponent during a 10-game winning streak. They tried to make everyone forget about that Week 2 loss to Northern Illinois, but it didn’t work for the committee, who gave Notre Dame the No. 7 seed. Odds at the Crypto Sportsbook have the Irish as a 7.5-point favorite over the surprising Hoosiers, who lost to Ohio State, 38-15, in Week 13. ... 

The college football bowl season starts on Saturday, Dec. 14 when the South Alabama Jaguars of the Sun Belt Conference and Western Michigan Broncos from the MAC square off in the Salute to Veterans Bowl.

With Championship week behind us and bowl season ahead, this week gives us one final regular season college football game to wager on, and it’s a dandy deserving of standalone status. The annual clash between the Army Black Knights and Navy Midshipmen has lost importance on the national stage with the emergence of the sport as a big business. But for the first time in years both squads were relevant again making visits to the national rankings. Both teams had their quest for a perfect season end... 

In a rematch of a hotly-contested regular season game, the Georgia Bulldogs and Texas Longhorns will meet on Saturday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta to determine the 2024 SEC champion. In its first season in the league Texas nearly ran the table going 6-1 in conference games and 11-1 overall. That one loss, though, was to Georgia in Week 8 when the Bulldogs travelled to Austin as a 4-point underdog and won the game outright, 30-15, in convincing fashion. While the Horns won five straight af... 

It’s championship week with nine games on the Week 15 college football slate to determine conference winners and lay the foundation for the upcoming College Football Playoff. The lighter schedule should make games easier to handicap giving us a better chance of hitting a college football parlay at the Crypto Sportsbook. The one issue is that the games are expected to be closer. The biggest favorite on the Week 15 board is Tulane laying 6-points in the AAC title game to Army. The Black Knights get a home game by going undefeated in league play with their only setback coming in Week 13 to Notre Dame. Army is one of five teams that can win a conference title in its first season in their respective league. The other four are favored to win their games with Oregon laying 3.5-points to Penn State in the Big Ten, SMU giving 2.5-points to Clemson in the ACC, Arizona State favored by 2-points against Iowa State in the Big 12 and Texas a 2.5-point favorite against Georgia in the SEC. ... 

The first CFP rankings came out this week with Oregon, Ohio State, Georgia and Miami the top teams. All four of those clubs are playing in Week 11 of the college football season with plenty at stake. Oregon and Miami have yet to lose this season and would still be a playoff team with a setback. The waters muddy for OSU and Georgia if they lose a second game. Th... 

There’s nothing like rivalry week in college football and the Iron Bowl matchup between the Auburn Tigers and Alabama Crimson Tide is one of the best. The series has been one-sided recently with the Tide winning the last four meetings, but the Tigers covered twice in the last three games when catching double figures on the betting line and they are an 11.5-point dog at your Bitcoin sportsbook.

Auburn has some much ... 

At the beginning of the season few would have predicted the Indiana Hoosiers at Ohio State Buckeyes Week 13 game would have Big Ten Championship and College Football Playoff implications. Sporting a perfect 10-0 record after their Week 11 win over Michigan, IU moved to No. 5 in the national rankings. The 20-15 win over the Wolverines was IU’s closest game of the season and the only one de... 

Three games on the Week 13 college football schedule feature nationally ranked teams against each other with the Big Ten clash between Indiana and Ohio State a top 5 matchup.

It’s been forever since they’ve beaten OSU, though this is their best chance in decades. And the Crypto sportsbook agrees setting the... 

Last week was not a good one for ranked teams with five top 25 squads losing. No. 3 Georgia and No. 4 Miami both suffered setbacks that could harm their CFP standing. However, the expanded format leaves the door open for teams with multiple losses to still get in. At 7-2 the Bulldogs can’t afford another loss and will look to get back in win column hosting Tennessee in Week 12 as a 10-point favorite on the opening line at the Crypto Sportsbook. The 2024 college football regular season is quickly coming to a close with games featuring playoff contenders taking on more importance. One of four unbeaten teams remaining in the FBS, top-ranked Oregon plays at Wisconsin on Saturday night as a 14.5-point favorite on the early line. BYU escaped with a narrow win last week and puts its 9-0 record on the line against a dangerous Kansas club. Army and Indiana will remain undefeated as they both take the week off. ... 

This week brings one of the most important games of the college football season. The Tennessee Volunteers will visit the Georgia Bulldogs. Head coach Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs are coming off an embarrassing road loss to the Ole Miss Rebels in a game in which Lane Kiffin outcoached Smart. The Bulldogs remain in the hunt for the SEC and College Football Playoff. However, UGA has no margin for error. The Dawgs will host the Vols between the hedges in a matchup with major SEC and CFP implications...
