Simplebet has expanded its college football offerings on the DraftKings Sportsbook ahead of the first full weekend of the 2022 college football season.

Available now to DraftKings users across the US in states where its mobile sportsbook app is present, the new product range will allow users to bet on an “unprecedented 100,000 plays” across the 85 games during opening weekend and each week throughout the season. 

Via the flash props tab on the DK Sportsbook app, the new ways users can wager include: 

  • Next Play – bet on the next play being a rush or pass, result in a first down, or if a team will score a touchdown.
  • Current Drive & Next Drive Outcome – if a team will score a touchdown on their next offensive drive and the result of a drive (touchdown, field goal, punt, field goal attempt, or turnover).
  • Current Drive – bet on if a team will succeed or fail at passing a specific yard marker on a drive (eg. 50-yard marker).

Commenting on the new offerings, Simplebet Co-Founder and CEO, Chris Bevilacqua, stated: “In talking with our operator partners, who are looking for differentiated content and incremental GGR for in-play wagering, we believed that accelerating investment into the second-most popular sport in the country in college football was a huge untapped opportunity.

“Our product and technology is uniquely positioned at scale to offer the ability to price every play across every game, and reprice on each drive within a second.

“Throughout the season, we will cover over 700 college football games and provide users opportunities to wager on over 100,000 plays offering instant gratification and enhanced engagement for users.”
