Baseball, hockey and soccer, meanwhile, are often bet using the money line. For example, spread bets are most common in sports such as football and basketball.
The vast assortment of sports gives bettors the chance to utilize all different types of bets as well. And while pro baseball has now wrapped up, any void left by that has been filled by college basketball, which often has more than 100 games on the board in a given day. This is the only time of year where all four major sports run simultaneously on some days. In fact, some sports bettors prefer late fall to any other time on the calendar.
Add in weekly sports like golf and MMA and it's the perfect time for USA sports betting. Pro football is in full swing, pro basketball is heating up, and college basketball just returned.
