Each of these apps provide unique betting opportunities. Let’s run through each offer and some betting opportunities for college football games that might be appealing.
DraftKings Promo Code: Instant $300 Bonus + $200 NFL Sunday Ticket Discount
The DraftKings promo code offer was increased to $300 in bonus bets with an NFL Sunday Ticket discount that is over $200. This is activated with a $5 bet on any market, and the result of that wager does not matter. You will receive your rewards before that bet even settles.
One feature within the DraftKings Sportsbook app that is great for new users is the pre-made parlay options. Bet $5 on any of these Week 1 college football pre-made parlays to activate your offer:
- Ohio State, Notre Dame, Alabama, LSU, Texas A&M all win (+836)
- Arch Manning 250+ passing yards, Jeremiah Smith 80+ receiving yards, Cade Klubnik 250+ passing yards, Carson Beck 250+ passing yards (+1052)
FanDuel Promo Code: Win $300 Betting Bonus
The FanDuel promo code offer also provides $300 in bonus bets, but the important caveat is that you have to win your initial $5 bet. Knowing this, you should look for a bet that is likely to settle as a win, rather than prioritize the odds and payout. Here are a few options that could be interesting:
- Ohio State +23.5 alt spread vs. Texas (-4000)
- Alt total points for LSU vs. Clemson: over 26.5 (-20000)
Bet365 Bonus Code WTOP365: Score New $200 Bonus
The bet365 bonus code WTOP365 gives you the choice for how to start your account. Bet $5 on any market to activate the new $200 bonus offer instantly, or bet up to $1,000 with the first bet safety net offer and get your stake back in a bonus refund if your bet loses.
A good way to activate your offer would be to capitalize on one of the bet boosts for today’s Week 1 games. Here are some examples:
- Texas moneyline, Quintrevion Wisner to score a touchdown, Arch Manning 3+ touchdown passes (+1100 boosted to +1200)
- LSU moneyline, Caden Durham to score a touchdown, Garrett Nussmeier 3+ touchdown passes (+675 boosted to +800)
- Miami moneyline, Mark Fletcher Jr. to score a touchdown, Carson Beck 3+ touchdowns (+1150 boosted to +1400)
BetMGM Bonus Code WTOP150: Claim $150 Bonus Offer
The reward you get from the BetMGM bonus code depends on your location. Sign up in select states (MI, NJ, PA or WV) to get a $150 bonus offer, which requires a winning $10 bet. Or use a safety net that has a max of $1,500. The safety net offer works the same as the previously mentioned bet365 safety net.
With the safety net offer, you can bet on any market that appeals to you. That could be a Texas moneyline bet or a bet on any other game. With the $150 bonus offer, these are some betting markets you might want to target with your $10 wager:
- Ohio State +6.5 vs. Texas (-275)
- LSU-Clemson both teams to score 10 or more (-2500)
Caesars Sportsbook Promo Code WTOP20X: Double Wins For Week 1
Count Caesars Sportsbook as another to upgrade its welcome offer. Instead of getting 10 100 profit boost tokens, you can now get 20. Activating this offer works the same way as it did before. You just have to bet $1 on any game, and the outcome of that bet does not matter.
You might want to take advantage of some bet boosts when you activate your offer. Here are some notable options:
- Mississippi State, Purdue, Kentucky and Florida State all win (+850)
- Ohio State, Alabama and LSU all win (+460)
Fanatics Sportsbook Promo Code: 20+ No Sweat Football Bets
