mybookie App Download App

The opening week of the college football season is in the books, and you can already tell that we are going to be in for a wild season. It’s only one game, but the Coach Prime show is in full effect, with Colorado going to Texas and taking out TCU in a 45-42 thriller. That was not the only surprise, but it was the result that resonated the loudest with college football fans. There really is no time to dwell on the events of the opening week, though, as it’s now time to start looking ahead to Week 2 of the college football season. You probably all have the games picked out that you want to wager on, but we still thought it would be fun to talk about 5 games we will almost certainly be looking at this week to consider in your college football betting odds, so let’s get to it.

College Football: Top 5 Games you must Bet on in Week 2 | MyBookie Regular Season Football Betting Preview

Regular Season: August 26 to December 9
Week 2: Thursday, September 7 to Saturday, September 9, 2023

Utah Utes at Baylor Bears

College Football Odds: Utah -274 vs Baylor +218
When: Saturday, September 9 at 12:00 PM EST
Where: McLane Stadium, Waco, TX
TV: ESPN

Utah got their season off to a solid start, beating Florida 24-11 in a game that was much more comfortable than the score suggests. This week they will be heading to Baylor to face a Bears team that is already on the ropes after Week 1. Baylor went down 42-31 to Texas State, a loss that could have already potentially killed any playoff hopes they might have had. They need a big win this weekend, with a loss to Utah essentially being another nail in their coffin.

Ole Miss Rebels at Tulane Green Wave

College Football Odds: Ole Miss -274 vs Tulane +216
When: Saturday, September 9 at 3:30 PM EST
Where: Yulman Stadium, New Orleans, LA
TV: ESPN 2

There are a lot of people looking at Ole Miss as a potential threat in the SEC, and they looked strong in a 73-7 win over Mercer in Week 1. That was an expected result, though, and this will be a much tougher task on the road to a Tulane team that is ranked in the top 25 and off to a winning start. This should be another win for Ole Miss, but it also represents a potential banana peel.

Texas A&M Aggies at Miami Hurricanes

College Football Odds: Texas A&M -210 vs Miami +168
When: Saturday, September 9 at 3:30 PM EST
Where: Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, FL
TV: ABC

Many teams opt to start the season with an easy game to help them ease into the new year, but things have to get tougher. That is what we are seeing here, with Texas A&M, fresh off a comfortable win over New Mexico. Hitting the road for a tricky Week 2 game in Miami. The Hurricanes won their opening game of the season against Miami-Ohio and will be looking forward to a tougher challenge here.

Oregon Ducks at Texas Tech Red Raiders

College Football Odds: Oregon -242 vs Texas Tech +193
When: Saturday, September 9 at 7:00 PM EST
Where: Jones AT&T Stadium, Lubbock, TX
TV: FOX

This has to be a bounce back week for Texas Tech, who lost to Wyoming in 2OT after starting that game as a 14-point favorite. Things are about to get a whole lot tougher, though, as Oregon is coming off an opening weekend where they scored 81 points. I don’t expect that here, but can Tech bounce back and give the Ducks some problems?

Texas Longhorns at Alabama Crimson Tide

College Football Odds: Texas +224 vs Alabama -289
When: Saturday, September 9 at 7:00 PM EST
Where: Bryant-Denny Stadium, Tuscaloosa, AL
TV: ESPN

These teams won’t be in the same conference until next season, but while we wait for that to happen, we get an early preview in what is arguably the biggest game on the Week 2 college football schedule. It may be early in the season, but make no mistake about it, this will be a game with potential playoff implications.
