Week 1 College Football Picks Highlighted by Expert Predictions
The Week 1 college football schedule commenced on Thursday and features a full lineup on Saturday, along with three games on Sunday and one on Monday, coinciding with Labor Day weekend. A key matchup on Saturday sees LSU favored by 10 points against Clemson.
On Sunday, Notre Dame is set at -20.5 against Wisconsin, while Washington is favored by -23.5 in the Apple Cup against Washington State, and Ole Miss is -6.5 against Louisville. Monday's game has SMU at -3 against Florida State. Expert Thomas Casale, who has over 30 years of sports betting experience, has shared his top picks for the week, suggesting that a parlay of these bets could yield a return of approximately +600.
Among Casale's recommendations is betting on the Under (50.5) for the LSU vs. Clemson game on Saturday evening. He notes that while LSU's new roster, including former Arizona State quarterback Sam Leavitt, may take time to gel, Clemson's strong defense could lead to a lower-scoring game. Further insights and additional picks from Casale are available at SportsLine.
