Every sport offers a unique slice of gambling that requires research, statistical analysis, market inspection and a bit of luck.
One of the betting pinnacles in college basketball is the March Madness Calcutta pool, while golf provides a season-long “one-and-done” format. For college football, the most exciting prop bet of the season is a bowl confidence pool.
If you're unfamiliar with the format, a player needs to pick a winner in every single game and assign a “confidence rating” that will be added up at the end.
For example, if a participant feels that Kansas will blow out Arkansas in the Liberty Bowl, then the Jayhawks would be the selection with the highest point total assigned in the pool. Conversely, if a bowl game has plenty of turnover from coaching, transfer portal and opt-outs then a player could assign the lowest point value to that game.
