The 2020 XFL season took a big twist in Week 3 as the DC Defenders, who had dominated the league in Weeks 1 and 2, were blown out in Week 3. That’s moved the Houston Roughnecks into the role as favorite to win the XFL championship. After the changing of the guards, which team is the best bet for the XFL Championship odds at this point?

The XFL has announced that the league will resume operations in 2022 under new ownership 🏈

Set to begin immediately after the NFL season concludes, the XFL is doing its part in creating a longer football season for fans. A longer season equals more action for legal betting on the XFL - something that should be very well received despite this being an inaugural season.

Sharing its name with the defunct XFL that played a single season in 2001, the upcoming season for the revitalized XFL will introduce a cleaner, quicker approach to its predecessor and the rivaling NFL.

This guide will help sports bettors of all types capitalize on America’s newest professional football league in the inaugural 2020 season. We provided recommended XFL betting sites, the history, and the latest trends of the XFL, plus any extra information and resources needed to maximize bankroll throughout the season.

Is it legal to bet on the XFL?

The XFL offers a unique opportunity to fans for betting.

First, like most sports, entertainment, and political wagering, Americans can gamble on outcomes in two ways: domestically and offshore. For certain fans, their home state may already allow locally licensed sports betting, meaning they can bet with a few clicks on a mobile app or by visiting their local sportsbook.

For everyone else, the second option is to gamble at offshore, online XFL betting sites. According to US federal gambling laws there are no prohibitions for placing bets at offshore sportsbooks that are operating legally within the industry.

However, what makes the XFL unique is its in-house connection to the sports betting world. League founder Vince McMahon is a minority stakeholder in DraftKings and the league has expressed an interest in running their fantasy football and betting operation through the service.

Not only that, but the league also hopes states with domestic sports betting will expand to every state that hosts a team, allowing the XFL to fully integrate sports wagering into the game.

What is the XFL?

Although it shares its name and trademark with the defunct 2001 iteration of the XFL, the 2020 revitalization of the league is all its own. On January 25, 2018, the newly formed Alpha Entertainment, a media investment conglomerate founded by McMahon, announced a revival of the XFL.

The XFL will have eight teams in its inaugural season, all of which are owned by the league, and will play over the course of a 10-week season with a two-week postseason. The XFL will not allow cheerleaders, political protests, or convicted felons because, as McMahon put it: “people don't want social and political issues coming into play when they are trying to be entertained.” However, players will not be barred from using cannabis, nor will they be tested for it.

Aside from trying to make the XFL more compact on the outside, the league’s goal is to also make their game runtimes more concise, too. Originally shooting for a two-hour window, the XFL now plans to finish their game in less than two-and-a-half hours. For comparison, a standard NFL game runs a little over three hours.

XFL teams

The first season of the XFL will feature eight teams, split up evenly into a Western and Eastern Conference. The league has also already started to plan their expansion, listing a future second Dallas team as the ninth squad overall.

Western Conference

Dallas Renegades
Houston Roughnecks

The 2020 XFL draft format

Before the start of the draft in October, coaches submitted their lists of preferred quarterbacks. After the submissions, the league allocated each team one “tier 1” QB to each of the eight teams.

After the quarterback allocation, the official draft began. Done through a snake format similar to fantasy football drafts, each phase of the draft featured a different selection of specifics positions.

Phase 1: 10 rounds for offensive skill positions (quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends)
Phase 2: 10 rounds for offensive linemen (offensive tackles, guards, and centers)
Phase 3: 10 rounds for the defensive front seven (defensive linemen and linebackers)
Phase 4: 10 rounds for defensive backs (cornerbacks and safeties)
Phase 5: 30 rounds for the open draft (any position, including special teams)

Bets defined

Point spread- the set margin of victory needed for the favored team. (ex. Dallas -5.5; Dallas must win by 6 or more.)
Money line- a bet solely on the winner and loser of the matchup in which odds determine the payout for the winning team. (ex. New York -300; a $300 bet on New York’s win would payout $100.)
Over/under- the total number of points expected to be scored by one or both teams for a specific time frame. (ex. over/under 49.5 total points for Tampa Bay vs. Houston; betting on the over means a prediction of 50 or more points.)
Prop bet- bets made on anything not directly affecting the outcome of the game. (ex. total number of times the DC quarterback is sacked.)
Parlay- betting on multiple lines in an attempt to earn a larger payout. All bets must win for the bet to pay.
Future- bets made as long-term predictions. (ex. Los Angeles +225 for the XFL Championship.)

As the XFL is a new league, one of the best sources available is their official website. Information on the league, its teams, and its players are all available on the site. Once the season officially begins, expect to see statistics, standings, and win/loss records here, too.
