ACC Football Odds 2024: Clemson, FSU Lead Way; Tar Heels 6th in ACC Title Futures

Six months remain until teams in the ACC begin playing football for real. But thanks to college football futures odds, we can get an early look at how teams might stack up in a newly expanded league that now includes Stanford, California and SMU.

There’s no surprise at the top, where sportsbooks have Clemson and Florida State as +270 co-favorites to win the ACC Championship Game. Next is Miami  at +450 and Louisville at +470, followed by Old North State rivals N.C. State at +1300 and North Carolina at +2200.

For the state of North Carolina in particular, ACC football (and basketball) futures loom large as  prepares to launch on March 11. The state will also see a major influx of talent at quarterback — with transfers Maalik Murphy (Texas) taking over at Duke, Grayson McCall (Coastal Carolina) at N.C. State and Max Johnson (Texas A&M) at UNC.

ACC futures are just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the available wagers that  will have available on launch day March 11 — a menu that will also include season win totals and national championship futures. As for the league’s newcomers, sportsbooks have SMU as a +2200 futures bet to win the ACC, while Cal is +5500 and Stanford is last on the board at +50000.

Starting on March 1, sports bettors can sign up early in North Carolina and start claiming , which offer new users hundreds of dollars in bonus bets they can then use to wager on the site. Sports bettors must be at least 21 years old and physically within the state to claim promo code offers, or to wager legally in North Carolina.

There’s also no limit to the number of bonus offers you can claim — if it’s legally available in North Carolina, go for it. Top betting apps have a proven track record of offering terrific welcome bonuses, so expect the  offer to follow suit.

Duke Among Long Shots in ACC Race

Some ACC teams face very long odds of winning the league title. Sportsbooks have Duke as  +10000 futures bet to win the ACC, followed by Pittsburgh and Virginia each at +11000, Boston College at +13000 and Wake Forest at +25000. But teams buried in futures odds sometimes surprise — like Georgia Tech, which finished fourth in the ACC last season after opening with the third-longest futures odds in the league.

Bonus bets allow bettors to take chances on long shots with confidence or stick with proven favorites. The  should be a popular one to use on college betting once it goes live in the state.

Also keep an eye out for other deals as well. The will be a much-anticipated offer given the close ties the ESPN television network has with the ACC—where college football begins for real on Aug. 29.
