It’s not as noisy a Week 1 as the year prior, when Alabama and Florida State met in the biggest opener ever, which really fizzled out on us by the end of the month, due to FSU’s calamities.

But there are still plenty of big games — Auburn-Washington, Miami-LSU, FSU-Virginia Tech, West Virginia-Tennessee, and more, plus this year’s noisiest opener, Michigan-Notre Dame — and smart gamblers know college football is a sport where knowledge about some of the lesser teams can go a really long way, since there are so many of them.

Just at a glance, I think FAU can score enough to stay within shouting range of Oklahoma, Boise State’s getting a lot of points at a pretty tough Troy very far from home, and ... sigh ... I’d probably take Bama to cover that gigantic spread against Louisville.

These numbers will change a lot by mid-August, but what odds are you eying for starters?
