Colorado at #17 TCU

All eyes are on Coach Prime as Deion Sanders takes the reigns of the Colorado football program. The Buffaloes come into Saturday's tilt on the heels of a putrid 1-11 season. They will have their work cut out for them right out of the gate against a staunch TCU squad.

The Horned Frogs come into 2023 after a run to the National Title game a year ago. While they were blown out in the big game, 2022 can only be categorized as a massive success for TCU as they strive to build off one of the best seasons in program history.

Middle Tennessee at Alabama

Despite a massive spread bettors are still coming in heavy on Middle Tennessee vs Alabama, a testament to the Crimson Tide's brand recognition.

Alabama (-39.5) is currently the second-most popular spread bet at BetRivers, with nearly 94% of all tickets backing the Tide. Can Alabama lay the smackdown right out of the gate, or are they laying just a few too many points?
