Miami (OH) — often thought of as the “other Miami — has garnered an impressive reputation among Mid American Conference schools. While the MAC doesn’t have the prowess of the now fledgling Pac-12 or the ever-expanding Big-12, it’s produced some premier professional players and in recent years has been the subject of many entertaining bowl games.
The RedHawks finished first in the MAC in 2023 with just one conference loss. That said, they fell to Appalachian State in the Cure Bowl on Dec. 16, 2023.
You can review some of the best potential bets for the RedHawks, with relevant examples, in the subsections below.
Miami (OH) bets
Broadly speaking, you can place any number of bets on Miami (OH). Say you’re interested in a futures wager you can try your hand at futures odds, bet on the total wins or even take a stab at player futures like the winner of the Biletnikoff Award or the Heisman Trophy.
If you’re looking for something focused more in the present, moneylines, spreads or over/unders are ideal.
Betting the Miami (OH) moneyline
Moneyline bets are very common and very direct. You’re simply picking a winner, no need to calculate the potential score or take nuanced factors into account. At most sportsbooks like bet365, FanDuel or even Fanatics Sportsbook it will look very similar to this:
Miami (OH) -175
Toledo +110
In this instance, the RedHawks are the favorite — indicated by the negative number — compared to Toledo that is the underdog (positive number). The actual numbers next to the teams correspond to the potential payout. While you can do the math in your head, there are also helpful tools on Action Network like the betting calculator.
Beyond just a traditional bet on the moneyline, these wagers can be helpful points for a parlay. If you’re interested about parlays generally, but apprehensive about how to set up the legs, check out the Action Network Parlay Calculator.
Using the odds above, a $200 cash bet on Miami (OH) gets you $114.29.
Betting the spread for Miami (OH)
Betting the spread is a very common college football wager. In practice, it’s a bet on the difference between the winning or losing team. Notably, picking a team to “cover the spread” as it’s called, is not necessarily picking them to win the game.
Even teams that go undefeated over the season get beat on the spread because it can be difficult to determine scores and, as is the case so often in college football, strange things happen. Betting the spread can also be more nerve-racking than a standard moneyline bet.
How does garbage time in a blowout factor in? Did you plan for that last second field goal? These are all components to consider when betting the spread.
Take this MAC matchup as an example:
Miami (OH) -3.5 (-111)
Bowling Green +3.5 (-111)
Similar to moneyline bets, the parenthetical number indicates the payout. So with the odds displayed, you’d need to wager $111 in cash to get $100 in profit.
The non-parenthetical numbers indicate the expected spread. In this case Miami (OH) is expected to win by at least 4 points. So betting on the RedHawks to “cover the spread” means a bet on Miami more than four points. Conversely, a bet on Bowling Green to “cover” would be a bet that they lose by three points or less.
Over/Under bets on Miami (OH)
Totals wagers — or as it’s often called the over/under — are another common college football market. Here, you’re betting on whether the collective point total will be above or below the expected amount, betting above is the over betting below is the under.
This market is commonplace with college football as the scoring tends to be uniform and you can often predict final scores based on each team’s previous performance.
Miami (OH) vs. Appalachian State
Over: 30.5 (-115)
Under 30.5 (-105)
Similar to spread bets, the parenthetical numbers correspond to the payout so with the under, you’d need to bet $105 to win $100 and with the over, you’d need to bet $115 to win $100.
MIami (OH) player props
Finally, we have player props. College player props are somewhat limited as many states that have legalized online sports betting still ban college props. There are a few states that offer some kind of player props but they tend to be limited.
That said, the addition of PrizePicks and similar DFS operators has given almost everyone the opportunity to review some potential props.
