Ways to Bet on Vols Football Odds

Vols Moneyline Bets

Moneyline bets are straightforward: you're simply betting on whether the Tennessee Volunteers will win or lose a game. For example, if the Vols are playing against the Florida Gators and the moneyline is set at +150 for the Vols, a $100 bet would win you $150 if Tennessee wins the game.

Vols Spread Bets

Spread bets are wagers on the margin of victory/defeat, or the amount a team will win or lose by. If the Vols are favored to win by 7 points against the Kentucky Wildcats, the spread might look like this: Tennessee -7. If you bet on the Vols, they need to win by more than 7 points for your bet to be successful. Conversely, if you bet on Kentucky, they need to either win or lose by less than 7 points.

Vols Over/Under Bets

Over/under bets involve wagering on the total points scored in a game. If the over/under for the Vols game against the South Carolina Gamecocks is set at 55 total points, and you bet the over, you are betting that the combined score of both teams will be more than 55 points. If the final score is 30-28, for a total of 58 points, you win the bet.

Vols Prop Bets

Prop bets are wagers on specific events within a game, often not directly tied to the outcome. This could include specific occurrences during the game. Tennessee does not allow individual player prop bets on college players. 

However, you can bet on whether a player will win the Heisman.

Vols Futures Bets

Futures are bets placed on events that will happen in the future, such as the Vols winning the SEC Championship or making it to the College Football Playoff.

Before the season starts, if you place a futures bet on the Tennessee Volunteers to win the SEC Championship at odds of +1800. And if the Vols win the championship, a $100 bet would net you $1,800.
