FanDuel Offers $250 Bonus Bets for College Football Weekend

FanDuel is providing a promotional offer for new users, allowing them to receive $250 in bonus bets. This offer is available for wagering on college football games scheduled for Friday, September 25, 2026.

The featured matchup on Friday's slate is between Clemson and Cal. The betting line for this game is hovering between a pick'em and a 1.5-point spread, depending on the sportsbook. Clemson's offensive performance has been marked by inconsistent quarterback play, while Cal has seen success through the air with seven touchdown passes from Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele. Sagapoultele has completed 72 of 108 passes for 866 yards and seven touchdowns through three games.

Another notable game involves Northwestern and Indiana. Northwestern has had a strong start to the season, but playing at Indiana's home stadium presents a significant challenge. Indiana's quarterback, Josh Hoover, has been particularly impressive, completing 37 of 51 passes for 649 yards and 10 touchdowns in three games. Aidan Chiles of Northwestern has also performed well, with 31 completions on 46 attempts for 514 yards and four touchdowns.

Other games available for wagering include Army vs. Temple and Navy vs. UAB.

To claim the FanDuel welcome bonus, new users must register for an account, download the FanDuel app, and complete a verification process. After making an initial deposit of at least $5, users can place a $5 or more wager on any game. Upon the grading of this wager, $50 in bonus bets will be awarded. This process can be repeated for five consecutive days, potentially totaling $250 in bonus bets. These bonus bets expire seven days after issuance.

The Clemson vs. Cal game is scheduled for Friday, September 25, 2026, at 10:30 ET from California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, California, and will be broadcast on ESPN. The Northwestern vs. Indiana game is set for the same day at 8:00 ET at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington, Indiana, and will be televised on FOX.
