Every rung and price on the full prop board. We publish no model on college props β€” these are the market's numbers.

The read

  • Forecast winds around 15 mph. Across 2,065 outdoor games, windy ones scored about 4 points fewer than calm ones β€” but the market moves its total to match, and backing the under in wind lost money at every threshold we tested. Conditions, not an edge.
  • At 6.5 the line sits just short of 7, so the games decided by exactly 7 fall on the favorite's side of this bet.
  • A total of 42.5 sits on the low side of real college football scores (the median FBS game lands on 54). That places the number; it does not predict the result β€” overs land almost exactly 50% against closing totals.
  • SP+ and the market differ by 3.2 points β€” SP+ rates the home side higher. Worth knowing, but not a signal: we backtested betting that disagreement and it went 49.8% against the spread, versus the 52.4% needed to break even.

A record, not a signal β€” we measured team-level situational splits at 50% against the spread. Useful for knowing a team, not for picking one.

How games at these numbers have gone

  • Spread 6.5 β€” the 3-7 point band. In 2,054 archived games at this number, the favorite covered 48.9% of the time β€” a coin flip once the 95% range (46.7–51.0%) is taken into account.
  • Total 42.5 β€” this game's spread sits in the 0-7 point band. In 2,739 archived games with a spread this size, the over hit 49.0% of the time β€” a coin flip once the 95% range (47.2–50.9%) is taken into account.

Measured on our archive of FBS games with a closing line and a final score. Context, not a pick β€” see every band.
