Betting win totals in college football can mean following teams that dwell in the middle and even at the bottom of the standings, particularly in the Power 5 conferences. For example, Alabama comes with a win total of 11.5. That means that if they go undefeated, they will hit the “over,” but all it takes is one loss for them to hit the “under.” The Crimson Tide are retooling on offense, but for Nick Saban, retooling often means just putting the next blue-chip recruit into the starting lineup. Even so, all it takes is one slip, and LSU looks a lot tougher again this season, to ruin an unbeaten regular season.
Let’s look at some more promising win totals for your College Football betting consideration.
NCAA News: Top College Football Win Totals for 2021
Georgia (10.5)
The Bulldogs open with Clemson, which seems, at least at first glance, like an automatic loss. Georgia will have J.T. Daniels at quarterback, though, and he led the Bulldogs to four straight wins to close out 2020, so it’s not like he’s coming into the position raw to start against the Tigers. Georgia has a terrific defense, a speedy backfield and a roster without holes. The only problem left for the Bulldogs to solve is how to win clutch games, week in and week out, and finally knock off Florida AND win the SEC Championship in the same season. I’m going to take the over with Georgia, even though I fully believe that they will lie down for Alabama once again in the SEC Championship.
LSU (8.5)
The SEC West is a gauntlet, with games against Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss and Mississippi State on the slate — and if Arkansas is good, that makes things even tougher. LSU should be back after a dreadful 2020; their quarterback competition yielded solid results, and their defense is experienced once again. With this much talent on both sides of the ball, I’m taking the over here.
South Carolina (3.5)
Shane Beamre makes his head coaching debut in Columbia, and the schedule is not friendly. The Gamecocks play Clemson out of conference, which should be a loss, but they have three other non-conference opportunities to stack wins. They also get Vanderbilt at home this fall, and tailback Kevin Harris will help South Carolina get over this total.
Duke (3.5)
The Blue Devils get to place North Carolina A&T, Kansas and Charlotte in non-conference play. All of those tomato cans should line up nicely for Duke. In ACC play, their best shots at a victory come against WAke Forest, Virginia or Georgia Tech. The team has made numerous changes on the field and in the coaching staff, so consistency from the get-go will be important, but even if things are difficult, I’m liking the over here.
Florida State (5.5)
Florida State has an exciting future coming, but they face a rebuilding season here. Their nonconference games include Jacksonville State, UMass, Notre Dame and Florida; I see them beating the first two but falling to the last two, even though the Fighting Irish come to Tallahassee. With all of those problems, I’m going with the under here.
North Carolina (10)
The Tar Heels will have to learn how to deal with being the favorite on a regular basis; last year, they struggled to finish winnable games, as they lost to Florida State and Virginia by a field goal each; there is a difference between having the potential to crack ten wins and actually doing it. North Carolina could be the favorite in their first six or seven games, and then they play at Notre Dame on Halloween. However, there are plenty of traps along the way, such as the season opener, when they head to Blacksburg to take on Virginia Tech. All those traps have me taking the under here.
