RESPONSIBLE BETTING
🛑 Don’t Gamble. BET BETTR. 🛑

Sports betting can be fun and entertaining - and it is certainly a way to be more engaged with your favorite sport(s). But, there can also be negative effects of sports betting, including addiction. We believe that the best way to enjoy sports betting is to do so responsibly. For that reason, we’ve partnered with Birches Health to bring you helpful tips, advice, and, if needed, expert counseling. Stay tuned this season for more helpful resources brought to you by BettrNation and Birches Health!

TRIVIA ANSWER

ESPN currently has Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Ohio State as the 4 teams with over a 10% chance of winning the National Championship. (For reference, as a Wake Forest fan, the Demon Deacons currently have a 0.0% chance of winning the National Championship according to ESPN 😢😢)

Here’s to a fun (and chaotic) football season ahead!
