Yes, I basically play them blindly in the NFL, unless I really don't like the team in question and am heavy on the other side... (I prob eliminate maybe 1 out of every 20 games)
They are absolutely not profitable in college football. Points are not worth enough in college. You should never place a college teaser bet.
There are no profitable pleasers. They come close at upper leave college spreads like +41, but still are not profitable.
The best question is why people don't blindly play CFB 1st half unders... 58-59% during the 1st month of each season over 1500 games...
Very true to form this year. I will be on all with the rule changes except TX (I think that one goes over...)

Assuming you have +100 you need to win 70.7% of the games to break even.
If I recall, in the NFL, ones that cross bothe 3 and 7 win something like 72 or 73% of the time..
This equivalates (Is that a word) to about 52.5% but against a +100 line... It is basically break even (I can't recall if it is like .1 up or down) on a -110 line.
I thought 7 pointers crossing both 3s would be profitable, but they are not.
In college, it is a horrible bet. I would estimate 47% at +100, but I have not run the numbers in a long time as I am certain there are no college teasers to play.

NFL is consistently better to tease, but that doesn't mean there can't be a college tease. Some books offer special odds on college teasers to attract action, making them attractive with certain numbers in certain games. Not nearly as often as NFL, but with a large board full to choose from and with special odds offered, it is possible to get +EV teasing college foots. Not as good this early in the season though. Lines get better some later. IMO
