- The Florida Atlantic Owls are 14.0-point road underdogs to the Michigan State Spartans to start Friday Week 1 college football action.
- College football betting sites list the Oklahoma Sooners as 42.0-point favorites against the Temple Owls.
- After those games, the Wisconsin Badgers host the Western Michigan Broncos as 23.5-point favorites.
NORMAN, Okla. – Friday night features four college football games to bet on. The Week 1 action begins with Michigan State as a 14.0-point legal sports betting favorite against Florida Atlantic.
Florida Atlantic Vs Michigan State Betting Odds
Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
---|---|---|---|
Florida Atlantic | +14.0 (-115) | +425 | O45.0 (-110) |
Michigan State | -14.0 (-105) | -600 | U45.0 (-110) |
Recent trends support the Spartans to cover the 14.0-point spread, as Michigan State covered in five of their last six home games against non-conference opponents. Meanwhile, Florida Atlantic is just 1-20 in their last 21 out-of-conference games on the road.
Both teams have plenty of question marks on offense, making the 45.0-point legal Florida sports betting total a solid option on the under. FAU’s defense was the highlight of their team last season and their 16.5-point total shows they won’t be much of a force offensively.
Temple Vs Oklahoma Betting Odds
Team | Spread | Total |
---|---|---|
Temple | +42.0 (-105) | O58.0 (-110) |
Oklahoma | -42.0 (-115) | U58.0 (-110) |
The Sooners are massive 42.0-point legal Oklahoma sports betting favorites in their season opener against the Temple Owls. Temple replaces last year’s quarterback with a guy who hasn’t started a Division 1 game in his career.
Oklahoma’s elite defense expects to shut out Temple in the first half, as the Owls’ first-half points projection stands at 0.5 points with -105 odds on the under. There are few Temple player props available, but Owls fans can use internationally-licensed PA sportsbooks to legally bet on those prop offerings in Pennsylvania.
Friday Night Betting Slate Features Wisconsin, TCU As Favorites
The next Week 1 offerings at legal college football betting sites begin with Wisconsin as a 23.5-point favorite against Western Michigan at 9:00 p.m. ET. Wisconsin has -110 odds to go over their 40.5-point projection in their season opener.
Western Michigan Vs Wisconsin Betting Odds
Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
---|---|---|---|
Western Michigan | +23.5 (-105) | +1100 | O56.5 (-110) |
Wisconsin | -23.5 (-115) | -2800 | U56.5 (-110) |
Western Michigan returns enough talent to cover the 23.5-point legal Wisconsin sports betting spread, especially considering multiple question marks on the Badgers’ defense. The Broncos return impressive running back Jalen Buckley, who won the MAC Freshman of the Year in 2023, and a solid quarterback with his top two receiving targets.
TCU Vs Stanford Betting Odds
Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
---|---|---|---|
TCU | -9.0 (-110) | -330 | O60.0 (-115) |
Stanford | +9.0 (-110) | +265 | U60.0 (-105) |
The TCU Horned Frogs are 9.0-point favorites against the Stanford Cardinal in the final Friday night college football game. The 60.0-point California sports betting total has -115 odds to go over.
Stanford was 0-7 straight up at home last season, covering the spread in just two of those games. The Cardinal defense was abysmal, allowing 42 points or more in seven games in 2023.
TCU’s quarterback Josh Hoover threw for at least 300 passing yards in five of his last six games last season and expects to take that extra step in 2024. The Horned Frogs have -120 odds at Texas sports betting apps to score over 34.5 points on Friday night.
