BetMGM Offers $1,500 in Bonus Bets for College Football Season Opener

The college football season begins tonight with a notable matchup between the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and the Colorado Buffaloes, hosted by Georgia Tech at 8 p.m. ET. New users at BetMGM can take advantage of the bonus code CBSSPORTS to receive up to $1,500 in bonus bets if their first wager does not win, or $150 if it does.

Sports analysts have differing opinions on the game, with Micah Roberts predicting Georgia Tech will cover as 6.5-point favorites. Emory Hunt has also provided insights on other games, including a pick for Wake Forest vs. Akron, while the SportsLine Projection Model suggests strong potential for Rutgers to cover against UMass.

Georgia Tech's new quarterback, Alberto Mendoza, is set to replace Haynes King, and the team aims to leverage its running game effectively. Colorado, which struggled last season with a 3-9 record, faces challenges with a lack of returning defensive starters. BetMGM encourages responsible gaming and provides resources for bettors.
