NCAAF College Football betting in Ohio
In terms of collegiate sports, football is king is in Ohio, most notably the Ohio State Buckeyes, whose enormously successful CFB program can be relied upon to bring excellent sports betting opportunities to Ohioans via DraftKings, Caesars, BetMGM, FanDuel,
and every other sportsbook that will eventually be licensed in the Buckeye State. DraftKings sportsbook is particularly well known for its college football betting opportunities, as is BetMGM sportsbook, exemplified by the lucrative array of promo deals
both have taken to rolling out annually for the CFP Playoffs, in which OSU is a regular participant. The same is true of Caesars’ and Fanduel’s offerings for non-CFP bowl games, which have tended to serve as showcases for Ohio State stars
destined for the NFL, such as Christ Carter and Eddie George.
NCAAB College Basketball betting in Ohio
While Ohio is not necessarily a state associated with college basketball, several NCAAB programs of illustrious history nonetheless call the Buckeye State home, all of which will be available for college basketball betting via Caesars, DraftKings, BetMGM,
FanDuel, and other top sportsbooks, beginning in 2023. What’s more, a huge breadth of Ohio-based colleges and universities have made appearances in the March Madness NCAA Tournament since its inception—Ohio State, Xavier, Dayton, Cincinnati,
and Miami Ohio, to name just a few—and given said tournament’s status as the top US sports betting event of the year, it’s no wonder that college basketball fans are already speculating as to specifics of FanDuel and Caesars’ March
Madness promotions in 2023, not to mention the college basketball promos DraftKings and BetMGM are almost certain to provide.
Betting on the NBA in Ohio
Though Ohio boasts just one NBA franchise, the Cleveland Cavaliers, basketball betting in Ohio is nonetheless poised to be the state’s second most popular form of sports wagering, trailing only football, largely due to extraordinary, albeit sporadic,
run of success enjoyed by the Cleveland Cavaliers since drafting Lebron James in 2003. Further, NBA sports betting seems to lend itself to the cream of the crop when it comes Ohio sportsbook promos, with FanDuel and Caesars both debuting their services
by offering extraordinary NBA bonuses for Ohio sign-up, three months of free NBA League pass, in FanDuel’s case, and a weekly chance at winning Cleveland Cavaliers tickets, in Caesars’. Best of all, now that Donovan Mitchell has come to town,
the Cavs are once again a top NBA Championship contender, hardly five years removed from their most recent NBA title, which came in 2017 under the leadership of Lebron James and Kyrie Irving, so it’s not just FanDuel and Caesars offering great value
for NBA betting in Ohio, but DraftKings, BetMGM, Pointsbet, and many more sportsbooks as well.
Betting on the NFL in Ohio
Equipped with two NFL franchises, the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals, and a ravenous fanbase of football lovers, it's no wonder that whether Ohio users favor DraftKings, BetMGM, FanDuel, or any other Ohio sportsbook, football betting promo
offers are sure to abound. Not only do the Browns and Bengals each boast sterling histories, complete with NFL legends like Jim Brown and Chad Johnson (a.k.a. Chad Ochocinco), both teams are also currently enjoying bright futures, largely due to elite
quarterbacks Joe Burrow and Deshaun Watson under Cincinnati and Cleveland's respective centers. With that said, the addition of Joe Burrow's LSU teammate Jamar Chase to the Bengals' receiving corps has solidified Cincinnati as the Buckeye
State's NFL golden boys of the moment, perfect for the killer promo deals offered by the likes of DraftKings, among other top Ohio sportsbooks. Add to that the 2023 NFL Playoffs are right around the corner, and it's clear that legal sports wagering
couldn't be coming at a better time for football bettors in Ohio.
