Forty eight of the 65 teams in BCS conferences will play a I-AA opponent at some point in this season. Those games aren't of immediate interest to bettors since there are no lines on games with I-AA opponents, but they can have a major effect on the rest of the season. If a team has a close call, or a loss, against a I-AA opponent then their spread can be impacted in the next game.
Bettors are naturally going to overcompensate for a loss or a near loss against a I-AA opponent, which can set you up for an advantageous bet in the next game if you still believe in the major division opponent. It makes sense that the team that struggles with a I-AA opponent will bounce backwell in their next game.
With all that in mind, here is a look at some of the upcoming matchups with I-AA teams that could provide a challenge for the major conference opponents and could provide betting knowledge and opportunities in the future. In every case the major conference team is unquestionably the better team,but that doesn't always matter on the football field:

ahead of the game by understanding this will not only save you much
headache, but money as well.

Straight Bets,
Parlays, Teasers ... Straight Bets Example: Player wagers $110.00 on Duke -6 to beat +6 If Montana wins by more than 6 points the player wins $100.00 so the total payout including the initial wager would be $210.00. If Duke only wins by 6 points then the game is considered "no action" and all money is returned to the bettor. If the Montana wins by less than 7 points the wagers is lost. Totals (also known as Over/Under
bets) Example: The player lays $110.00 on the OVER in the Virginia/Maine game. The total for the game is 45. If both teams' combined score is more than 45 than the player would win $100.00. If the combined score is equal 45 the game is considered "no action" and the money is returned. If the combined score is less than 45 then the wager is lost. Money Line Wagers Example: The player wagers on BYU -160 at Albany +260. If BYU wins then the player would lay $160.00 to win $100.00. If the player bet on Albany then the player would lay $100.00 to win $260.00 >>> Place your NFL bet here NOW! >>> Halftime Wagers Parlays (also known as Multiples or Combos) This is a bet of 2 or more teams (selections) or propositions in no particular order. All teams wagered on in a parlay must win. If there is a tie, or "no action" among the selections made, the parlay reverts down to the next lowest number for payoff. In the case of a 2-team parlay, it will revert down to a straight wager. No parlay bets will be accepted where individual "selections" are connected. For example, you cannot parlay the over of the first half of a football game with the over of the total game, because the two are 'connected'
If all these games win then the player would have won at 20-1 odds. If only 1 team loses then the entire parlay loses. Parlays are a very exciting way for the sports betting enthusiast to WIN VERY LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY WITH VERY LIMITED RISK! Just look at the simple payout chart below to see how much you'll win by betting just $250 on the parlay combinations. Typical Parlay

Teasers A Teaser is a selection of two or more teams in one wager in which the point spread is adjusted in your favor. The number of teams selected and the number of points selected determines the payout odds. A "Tie" or "No Action" and a "Win" on a two team teaser shall constitute a "No Action" wager. A "Tie" or a "No Action" and a "Loss" on a two team teaser shall constitute a "Losing" wager. Ties on a three or more team teaser shall revert to the next lowest betting bracket. (Example: A tie on a three team becomes a two team teaser.) Typical Teaser Net Winnings for $250 bet:
Future Book Wagers A "futures" wager is a bet placed on an event that is scheduled to occur at some future date. For instance, prior to the beginning of the regular season for each major sport, odds will be established for each team to win their individual division, conference and seasonal championship. Another type of "future" wager that has become extremely popular is the over/under wager for the total number of victories for the entire season for a given team. Proposition Bets (Exotics) Simply put, Proposition/Exotic Bets may generally be considered as any wager other than a straight "side" or "over/under" wager. More specifically, these wagers usually involve specific events and occurrences that happen throughout any given game. We have listed some examples for you below. Props/Exotics will be offered on the more marquee games on the betting menu. These include, but are not limited to, Sunday and Monday night NFL games, various NCAA Football games, major Bowl games, and most Playoff and Championship games. There are also many other miscellaneous events that Props and Exotics will be offered for. Examples and Definitions of Common Props/Exotics
