What are the College Football Consensus Picks By Vegas Insider?
The College Football Consensus Picks is a detailed report that provides a breakdown of selections for each matchup based on the three most popular pre-game betting markets for College Football bettors: Spread, Total (Over-Under), and Moneyline.
For each of these betting markets, the NCAAF Consensus shows a percentage breakdown and the total number of selections made on each matchup.
These numbers are a great handicapping tool as bettors can see a quick snapshot of which way bettors are leaning on a spread, total, or moneyline wager.
Our College Football Matchups offer a more comprehensive betting trends percentage breakdown from the action that operators are receiving on specific games.
Understanding the fact that the betting public plays through these operators, the majority of the leans usually trend toward favorites with spread wagers and over-in total bets.
For the College Football Consensus Picks by VegasInsider, the data shows all available selections made by our College Football expert handicappers.
Unlike the majority of bettors, our College Football expert handicappers have a proven track record of winning documented records on VegasInsider.
Understanding the College Football Betting Consensus Picks
The Vegas Insider College Football Consensus Picks provide betting percentages on three different markets and the point spread is the most popular.
In the below example of the College Football matchup between Nebraska and Northwestern, there are a total of four selections posted on the Spread market from our experts.
The consensus report on the Spread market for this game shows a 75% lean or three picks to Northwestern, which means 25% or 1 pick was on Nebraska.
NCAAF Betting Consensus Picks Record
What differentiates the College Football Consensus Picks at VegasInsider is our presentation of the records based on previous-day trends.
Users can switch between past days or weeks to see how successful picks performed.
The overall Consensus Picks Record grades each matchup and betting market that had selections posted.
The three grades are Win, Loss, and Push. We identify a Push as a tie and in the case of our picks, that would be identified as a 50-50% split.
In the above example, North Texas defeated UTEP 31-13 and there were a total of six posted on this game.
The Spread was a Win as there was a 2-1 (67-33%) lean on the Mean Green and the Total was a Win too with two handicapper picks on the Under as well.
Fade or Follow Consensus Picks
The College Football Consensus Picks are a great handicapping tool for bettors with different styles.
Some users like to go against the grain and play the opposite of the betting public and those individuals are often referred to as ‘contrarian’ bettors.
The bettors that often side with the higher percentages in each matchup would be defined as ‘chalky’ players.
Some might scoff at that term knowing that the favorites do cash more often than not in College Football.
Our advice is to take a look at our consensus predictions and then compare them to the data in the College Football Matchups index.
If you tend to see a large following of Vegas Insider experts on an underdog or underwager and the betting public on the opposite sides, then it’s probably a great idea to back our group instead of the consensus.

How does a college football consensus pick affect my bet?
The NCAAF public consensus can tell you which side of a bet is more popular. Don't trust it too much though, as the consensus doesn't consist of professional bettors and might swing a different way than it should.
Should I fade the consensus ever?
Absolutely. If a betting side or total doesn't feel right, chances are there's a reason for it.
It can be a popular strategy due to consensus picks often sticking to a side based on familiarity and fandom to a team, though there are plenty of times it ends up being the correct choice.
What is Vegas Insider's most popular consensus pick?
