A new poll shows that about 60% of U.S. adults support legal betting on professional sports, while only 40% favor it for college sports. More than half oppose college sports betting altogether. Despite the legalization of sports betting in 38 states, public interest has not increased since 2019. The percentage of adults who frequently bet on sports has decreased from 36% to 25%. Concerns remain about the impact of betting on college athletes, with some individuals advocating for restrictions on college-level wagering. The debate continues as states navigate their own regulations on sports betting.
