Strategies using CFB DraftKings Betting Splits data

One of the most touted features on VSiN.com, and a feature that we believe to be a fantastic resource for bettors is the betting splits pages. These systems have updated language and records heading into the 2024 season. Note that these systems include only games matching two FBS opponents against one another.

Here are the college football betting trend systems and qualifying plays for this week’s games as of Tuesday afternoon. These can and will change, so continue to track and qualify the systems up until kickoff for best usage. There will be an updated betting splits article on Saturday morning.

CFB DK Betting Splits system #1: Going back to the start of the 2022 season, when 80% or more of the handle was on a particular side of an ATS wager, this majority group has gone just 82-97 ATS (45.8%). This angle has produced at around 46% consistently since first discovered. If you see the big green lights on the VSiN betting splits handle page 80% or higher, it is best to fade it.
System Matches (FADE ALL): JAMES MADISON, LOUISIANA TECH, WESTERN KENTUCKY, UNLV, MISSOURI, CLEMSON, ARMY, ILLINOIS, PITTSBURGH, LOUISVILLE, CINCINNATI, SAN DIEGO STATE, PENN STATE, BYU, WASHINGTON STATE, NORTH TEXAS, LOUISIANA, NEVADA, NEW MEXICO, MARSHALL, MINNESOTA

CFB DK Betting Splits system #2: When 75%+ of the number of bets were on a particular side of an ATS wager since the start of the ’22 season, this majority group has gone just 164-188 ATS (46.6%). In 2022 it was 46.5%, in 2023 it was 46.7%, maintaining incredible consistency. Again, if you see the big green lights on the VSiN betting splits # of BETS page 75% or higher, it is best to fade it.
System Matches (FADE ALL): LOUISIANA TECH, MISSOURI, ARMY, ILLINOIS, PITTSBURGH, BYU, WASHINGTON STATE, NORTH TEXAS, LOUISIANA, VANDERBILT, SYRACUSE, MINNESOTA, BOISE STATE

CFB DK Betting Splits system #3: When the majority of the handle was on road favorites for an ATS wager since the start of the ’22 season, this majority group is just 164-190 ATS (46.3%). Recreational bettors love road favorites because they are most often the better team. The point spread is the great equalizer. Bettors improved slightly on this system in ’23 but there is still plenty of reason to believe in and fade these over-backed road favorites.
System Matches (FADE ALL): UNLV, UTAH, MEMPHIS, MISSOURI, BALL STATE, CLEMSON, LOUISVILLE, SAN DIEGO STATE, PENN STATE, OHIO, WASHINGTON STATE, NORTH TEXAS, TEXAS-SAN ANTONIO, OLE MISS, OHIO STATE, IOWA STATE, MARSHALL, SYRACUSE, MINNESOTA, KANSAS STATE, BOISE STATE

CFB DK Betting Splits system #4: When the majority of the handle has been on road underdogs for an ATS wager since the start of the ’22 season, this majority group has gone 142-132 ATS (51.8%). This is less than the usual systems I like to present to readers, but this is a nice advantage against the usual majority win rates, and goes to show that being on the “smart” side of majority handle can pay off.
System Matches (SLIGHT PLAY ALL): FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL, NORTHERN ILLINOIS, AKRON, CINCINNATI, STANFORD, MISSISSIPPI STATE, SOUTHERN MISS, VANDERBILT

CFB DK Betting Splits system #5: When the majority number of bets has backed road underdogs for an ATS wager over the past two seasons, this majority group has gone 126-111 ATS (53.2%). This is even better than the handle numbers in #4 actually, and though it was down a bit for ’23, it suggests that following public bettors getting behind road dogs can be an actionable strategy.
System Matches (SLIGHT PLAY ALL): WISCONSIN, WASHINGTON, NORTHERN ILLINOIS, CINCINNATI, STANFORD, MISSISSIPPI STATE, VANDERBILT

CFB DK Betting Splits system #6: When the majority of number of bets has backed a team in an ATS wager in non-Saturday games, their 2022 and 2023 season record was 150-90 (62.5%)! This goes to show that public bettors can be better performers with less games to choose from. A lot of times their mistake proves to be taking too many games on a Saturday.
System Matches (PLAY ALL):
Tuesday: LIBERTY
Wednesday: JACKSONVILLE STATE
Thursday: JAMES MADISON, LOUISIANA TECH, W KENTUCKY
Friday: MARYLAND, UNLV, UTAH

CFB DK Betting Splits system #7: When the majority of the handle backed the team with more season wins in a FBS vs. FBS game for an ATS wager over the past two seasons, this majority group has gone just 313-354 ATS (46.9%). More than not, bettors like to back the “better team” in a matchup, regardless of what the point spread indicates. Again, the point spread is always the eternal equalizer.
System Matches (FADE ALL): JACKSONVILLE STATE, WESTERN KENTUCKY, MEMPHIS, MARYLAND, UNLV, ALABAMA, CLEMSON, MISSOURI, RUTGERS, BALL STATE, ARMY, EASTERN MICHIGAN, PENN STATE, PITTSBURGH, ILLINOIS, SAN DIEGO STATE, GEORGIA STATE, NORTHERN ILLINOIS, BYU, TENNESSEE, WASHINGTON STATE, NORTH TEXAS, TEXAS-SAN ANTONIO, OLE MISS, LOUISIANA, IOWA STATE, SYRACUSE, MINNESOTA, BOISE STATE

CFB DK Betting Splits system #8: The average college football total has steadied at about 54. In games since the start of the ’22 season where the totals reached 57 or higher and odds makers thus expected them to be a little more explosive when majority handle bettors favored the Under, they have been relatively sharp, going 51-38 (57.3%). This is pretty rare, as it occurred in only 89 of 1,567 games.
System Matches (PLAY UNDER ALL): GEORGIA TECH-NORTH CAROLINA, ARKANSAS STATE-TEXAS STATE, APPALACHIAN STATE-LOUISIANA, MARSHALL-GEORGIA SOUTHERN

CFB DK Betting Splits system #9: Since the start of the ’22 season, on games with totals of 45 or lower, 70%+ super majority handle bettors siding with the Under have gone 25-13 (63.2%). Because not many public bettors embrace betting Unders, this doesn’t produce a lot of plays, but the super handle majority has been sharp.
System Matches (PLAY UNDER): NONE YET

CFB DK Betting Splits system #10: Since the start of the ’22 season, on games with totals of 45 or lower, 75%+ super majority number of bets bettors bucking the low total and siding with the Over have gone 52-34 (60.5%). This system improved its win percentage in 2023. Again, not a ton of plays here in the grand scheme, but the more public option of number of bets has been pretty good when going against the grain.
System Matches (PLAY OVER ALL): UTAH-ARIZONA STATE, TOLEDO-BUFFALO, WISCONSIN-RUTGERS, STANFORD-NOTRE DAME, SAN DIEGO STATE-WYOMING, SOUTHERN MISS-LOUISIANA-MONROE, MINNESOTA-UCLA
