Week 1 of the College Football season is finally upon us and it will cover two weekends of action beginning on Saturday, August 26th with two games involving Top 25 teams. Both of those games have big spreads and really shouldn’t be all that entertaining. The real action gets started next Thursday when Ohio State opens on the road in a rare early-season Big Ten clash at Indiana. Saturday is full of great action including Michigan vs Florida and Florida State vs Alabama. Check back all year long for our Top 25 Free Picks against the spread.
