We recommend that sportsbook pay per head bookies pay attention to these details, especially when understanding the trends that are happening throughout the year. First, let’s take a look at the mobile betting handle, as we want to see how online sportsbooks fared this month.

The second takeaway we have from the report, are the sports leagues which are driving up betting activity in the state. Of course, baseball season is still ongoing, which is what has saved the August sports betting numbers from dropping. However, September brings us the start of both college football, and the NFL. These two tournaments are capable of generating millions in handle, as proven by the state’s sportsbooks. The NFL alone is responsible for $125.8 million of the total handle, while college football raked in $46.9 million in wagers. Football takes up 42.4% of all wagers in the state for the month.
