College Lines Play for the Payoff
The college lines have created great interest in the sportsbook palaces and Internet gambling sites on the Internet. The college lines can be challenged by those sports betting investors who have done their homework on the college teams and the college lines.
College sports have increased its fan base dramatically over the past two decades. College basketball and college football are the vanguards of the college sports explosion. Both sports have become international fixtures on the sports pages. College basketball’s explosion was triggered by the public interest over the rivalry created by the run to the 1979 NCAA finals on the part of Indiana State and Michigan State. The anticipated Armageddon between Indiana States’ Larry Bird and Michigan States’ Earvin “Magic” Johnson fractured all previous television ratings for an NCAA Basketball Championship contest. For college football, it was the establishment of the National Championship game in the 90’s. All college sports received the exposure they needed to expand their fan bases when the twenty-four hour a day sports network television stations on cable T.V. were started. Additionally, the college sports game became available world wide when the Internet came into vogue. The results of college games became available instantaneously which helped fuel the interest in college basketball and football internationally. Other college sports, such as baseball, women’s softball, soccer and lacrosse also increased their fan bases through television exposure and Internet blogging.
The college lines have created a tremendous interest for the sports betting investor. The college basketball lines dominate the sportsbooks in the casino betting parlors and in the online sportsbook gambling sites on the Internet. The college lines are set by the master oddsmakers of Las Vegas who have the expertise, experience and knowledge base to create college lines that would yield a return and then some for their employers. The college lines have become a favorite of a whole new band of bettors, the new wave gamblers of Generation X. These bettors have been attracted to betting on the college lines because of the closeness in age of the players and the bettors. Also, the Generation X bettors have grown up with the innovations of the Internet and they enjoy the comfort of sports investing from their own home. The college lines are a great play and the right bet can put the investor in the money.
