Players To Note

RB Blake Corum: Corum was in the mix for the 2022 Heisman Trophy before suffering an injury late last season. Corum believes the trophy is within his reach, as he returns to Ann Arbor for another season. He and runningmate Donovan Edwards make up the nation’s top running back room and pair with McCarthy.

WR Marvin Harrison Jr.: Somehow, the Buckeye receivers continue to improve. Following a string of three first-round receivers, Harrison Jr. might just be the best receiver in scarlet and grey in a long time. He’s the son of the NFL Hall of Famer and will be a featured part of this offense. His QB, Kyle McCord, was a high school teammate, ensuring a serious connection this fall.

OT Olu Fashanu: Penn State’s premier tackle was projected to be a top-10 pick in this year’s NFL Draft, but he decided to return to Happy Valley for one more season. A likely preseason All American, Fashanu should again be one of the conference’s top players. You may not hear his name as much as the skill players, but he’s as instrumental as anyone on the Penn State roster.

How to bet on conference winners

Our top advice we always give at TheLines is to shop around before diving headlong into the first bet you see. Different outlets offer different odds and a minute or two of your time could result in some more money coming your way. Just because FanDuel Sportsbook offers Iowa to win the Big Ten (+700) doesn’t mean DraftKings Sportsbook won’t offer the same prop at +900. We’ll compile all the odds for you so you always get the best price.

Sites like FanDuel, DraftKings, and Caesars offer ample ways to bet on college football conference winners– odds that will change drastically as the season progresses.

When betting on conference futures, be sure to keep in mind factors that are specific to college football. Important areas of consideration include:

  • Schedule (out of conference, home/away splits)
  • Coaching prowess
  • Returning production
  • Star quarterbacks
  • Experience and cohesiveness on the offensive line

Be sure to know which factors matter more than others. For example, a heavy focus is put on recruiting classes. However, the most recent class likely won’t take the field for another year or two and won’t factor into team success this season. Also, is this a coaching staff that develops its talent well? Staffs like Wisconsin are extremely good at developing talent whereas teams like Texas consistently underperform despite signing top recruiting classes.
