Purdue Football Hosting Wisconsin For First Ranked Game in 14 Years

Posted on October 21, 2021

The No. 25 ranked Purdue Boilermakers will be taking on the Wisconsin Badgers in a Big Ten bout this Saturday. The matchup will be the first ranked outing for Purdue football since 2007.

Purdue’s 24-7 win over No. 2 Iowa last week finally slid the program into the spotlight on the latest AP Top 25 poll.

Now the Badgers are in Purdue’s crosshairs.

Purdue Football vs. Wisconsin betting odds

Purdue vs. Wisconsin will be taking place at 3 p.m. this Saturday, Oct. 23. You can catch all of the action live on Big Ten Network.

Hoosiers that like to bet on Purdue football will have plenty of options this weekend.

Despite the national ranking, the Boilermakers are actually the underdogs for Saturday’s matchup. Wisconsin opened as the -155 favorite for the game, and the line hasn’t moved much since then.

Best sportsbook deals for Purdue Football vs. Wisconsin

Betting on sports can be a lot to keep track of. It’s easy to get lost in the shuffle of things between all of the different college football odds and sportsbook promotions.

Thankfully, we’ve done the hard part for you. The legal sportsbooks in Indiana are focused on parlay betting this week.

DraftKings College Football Parlay Boost

Like betting on multiple games at once? Then this new promotion from DraftKings Indiana could be right up your alley.

The sportsbook is hoping to reel in some parlay bettors with its latest deal.

If you’re not familiar with parlay betting, it’s essentially wagering on multiple outcomes at the same time. All of the bets in your parlay have to hit in order to win your wager.

Parlays are harder to win than a regular bet, but gamblers trade that risk for more favorable odds and payouts.

The “College Football Week 8 Parlay Boost” from DraftKings will increase your payout even further. It’s a 25% profit boost for any college football parlay with at least five legs.

Each leg of your parlay will need odds of -500 or longer. In other words, a +150 wager would make the cut, but a -700 bet on a heavy favorite would not qualify.

There’s also a $50 max bet for this promotion, but the 25% profit boost can add up to $250 in additional winnings for your parlay bet.

Both new and existing DraftKings gamblers can use this deal, so everyone can get in on the fun.

FanDuel bet $20 Get $10 Parlay Bonus

FanDuel’s latest sportsbook promotion is also aiming for parlay bettors.

Gamblers can use the company’s “Football Parlay Bonus” deal on any college football games between Oct. 21 and Oct. 25.

If you bet at least $20 on a college football parlay with four legs or more, then FanDuel will give you $10 in site credit regardless of whether your bet wins or loses. That makes this deal a decent way to take out some of the risk in gambling.

Your parlay will need to have final odds of +400 or greater in order to make the cut.

All you have to do to use the promotion is to sign up for FanDuel.

Once your account is ready to go, just find the deal under the “Promotions” section of the FanDuel website or app.

Opt-in, place your wager, and enjoy!

If you do end up using this promotion, just be sure to use your site credit sooner rather than later. Your free $10 will expire after seven days.
