College Football Bowl Game Odds: Lines, Totals For (Almost) Every Game
Get your rest while you still can
There's an old ESPN commercial that used to run this time of year, referring to the network's sponsored slate of college football bowl games as "the most wonderful week of the year."
It was a great sentiment, but to go a little bigger picture, the college football bowl season is truly the most wonderful time for college football bettors.
Counting the College Football Playoff, a 44-game bowl schedule is now set with the fun beginning Friday, Dec. 17 with the Bahamas Bowl. What follows is nearly a month of gridiron madness with at least one bowl game being played on 14 of the 16 days between the 17th and Jan. 1.
Below is a list of every college football bowl game with opening betting lines and totals from DraftKings Sportsbook. Some games weren't yet listed as of Monday, Dec. 6. These lines are also very much subject to change, as decisions on coaching staffs, NFL draft declarations, weather and more affect the market and how bettors approach each contest.
