Arkansas State Red Wolves Odds

Arkansas State Red Wolves 2025 Season Preview

Arkansas State enters the 2025 season under fifth-year head coach Butch Jones, looking to build on last year’s 8–5 finish that culminated in a victory over Bowling Green in the 68 Ventures Bowl—their first bowl win since 2019 

The Red Wolves return an experienced cast, including third-year quarterback Jaylen Raynor and key offensive weapons, while integrating fresh faces on defense to keep the team rising in the Sun Belt’s West Division 

Offensively, Jaylen Raynor returns with a career-best season under his belt—2,783 passing yards and 16 touchdowns—and will be supported by record-setting receiver Corey Rucker, one of the program's all-time leaders in receiving yards, along with talented transfers JJ Harrell and Nana Burris 

Running back Ja’Quez Cross remains a focal point both on the ground and in the passing game, providing a versatile offensive dimension 

Defense is in transition, with a major influx of transfer talent, including cornerback Avante Dickerson (formerly of Utah State), safety AG Mghee, and linebacker Aaron Alexander, all tasked with filling gaps left by last year’s departures 

Arkansas State’s 2025 schedule blends strong non-conference tests and Sun Belt matchups: the season begins with Southeast Missouri on August 30, followed by road trips at Arkansas and Kennesaw State, plus a home matchup with Iowa State, before opening Sun Belt play in early October

Betting on Arkansas State Red Wolves Football

There are lots of ways to bet on the Arkansas State Red Wolves this college football season. You can wager on them to win the Sun Belt Conference title or opt for a bet on the Red Wolves to win the Sun Belt’s West Division.

You can also bet on Arkansas State’s moneyline, point spread, and over/under in all of the Red Wolves’ games throughout the 2025-26 college football season.

Betting Arkansas State Red Wolves Moneyline

So, how does a moneyline bet work on Arkansas State this season? Here’s how it might look when the Red Wolves take on Louisiana-Monroe via FanDuel or DraftKings:

• Louisiana-Monroe +250
• Arkansas State -300

The plus and minus signs here signify the favorite (-) and the underdog (+), making Arkansas State the favorite in this game. A wager on the Red Wolves’ odds would mean you have to bet $300 to win $100. If you win, you get $100 in profit and your $300 stake back. For the underdog, it’s a $100 bet to win $250 in profit.

When it comes to betting the Red Wolves’ moneyline, it’s not recommended to lay huge prices (i.e. -500, -750). However, including a moneyline like that is a common add to a parlay. You can use our parlay calculator to get a better idea of what your potential payout would look like when you build a parlay with the Arkansas State moneyline included. You can also use our college football odds page to create CFB bets and even compare parlay prices on different sportsbooks to make sure you’re getting the best odds possible.

Betting Point Spreads in Arkansas State Red Wolves Games

Betting on the point spread in an Arkansas State Red Wolves football game is arguably the most common choice when making CFB bets. With the point spread, you’re wagering on the margin of victory in a game, with the favorite being handed a handicap. Since the spread adjusts based on the estimated ability of each team heading into a game, Arkansas State should be around .500 against the spread each year. That was the case last season when the Red Wolves went 6-5 ATS.

Here’s an example of what the point spread could look like when Arkansas State visits the Georgia State Panthers. The Red Wolves have an implied win probability of 59.5% with an expected point spread of 2.5 points.

Here’s what the point spread looks like:

• Arkansas State -2.5 (-110)
• Georgia State +2.5 (-110)

There are two things to keep an eye on when looking at a point spread. The spread itself (2.5 points in the example above) and the odds, which are typically -110. In this scenario, Arkansas State is a 2.5-point favorite, meaning the Red Wolves need to win by at least 3 points to cover the spread. If you were to bet $110 on them to cover, and they do, you win $100 in profit, plus your $110 stake is returned.

Betting the Total for Arkansas State Games

The total, also known as an over/under, is the third main betting market when it comes to college football. The total is a prediction as to whether the total number of points scored in a game will be more or less than the number listed at the sportsbook.

Here’s an example from a previous game. The over/under total was listed at 59.5, and the Red Wolves covered that number by themselves with a 77-32 victory.

• Over: 59.5 (-110)
• Under: 59.5 (-110)

If you bet the over here, you won since you predicted that the game would have 60 or more total points scored. For the under to win, you needed less than 60 total combined points. A $110 bet on the over netted $100 in profit, plus you got your $110 stake back.

You can bet on the Arkansas State Red Wolves player props; you’ll just need to head to a licensed casino or racetrack if you’re in Arkansas.
