While you may bet on college sports in Illinois, you have to do so in person at the sportsbook. (In the eyes of the regulators, this makes sense, because it makes it impossible to bet on Illinois college sports outside of state lines).

In other words, you can’t place a wager on your favorite college sports team from your living room, but only from a registered casino or sportsbook premises.

In addition, only tier one wagers (full game spreads and over/under bets) can be made. You may not place proposition bets on individual player performances.
