The more traditional half time football odds work in much the same way as first half NFL odds. Football odds at the half are available on most college and pro football games at sportsbooks around the world. In addition to halftime NFL odds, many sportsbooks also offer first half wagering. Let’s look at betting football odds on the first and second half of games.
Football odds on the first half is where a gambler will wager on only the first half of a game, with the second half having absolutely no relevance at all to the wager. Just as with the normal full game NCAA and NFL odds, there will be a first half favorite at minus points, a first half dog at plus points, with and over/under total plus sometimes even a money line. The most common games that have first half and second half odds attached to them are the televised matchups.
