The labor day weekend college football opener is a sight to behold. Not only are 100+ D1 programs kicking their season off this week, but the opening slate has also blessed us with a few top 25 matchups and some intriguing matchups with big-picture implications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not to be outdone by any other sport, CFB takes full aim at the entirety of your Labor Day weekend with 20+ game spread across Thursday and Friday, plus Sunday and Monday night matchups to whet your appetites if they weren\u2019t already. It\u2019s time for debut looks at the giants as they begin their quest for the playoffs, but also find your diamonds in the rough for this season or your \u201cbad teams that love to cover anyways.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/articles.runyourpool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AP22236672847966.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34079\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160315\/AP22236672847966.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160315\/AP22236672847966-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160315\/AP22236672847966-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">(AP Photo\/Wilfredo Lee, File)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tune-in-game-of-the-week\"><strong>TUNE-IN GAME OF THE WEEK<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The week one tune-in game could be up for debate, but based on pure star power and overall intrigue, the matchup that holds the most weight in week 1 is #2 Ohio State (-17.5) hosting #5 Notre Dame. This is a bellwether game that we\u2019ll all be looking back on three months from now as the College Football Playoff\u2019s final four are being decided, because we know at least one of these two teams will be in the conversation. The Internet has already matched Ohio State up against Alabama for the National Championship, so let\u2019s see how dominant they look in a legit week 1 test.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/articles.runyourpool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AP22236673007648.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160405\/AP22236673007648.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160405\/AP22236673007648-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160405\/AP22236673007648-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">(AP Photo\/Andy Nelson, File)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-nightcap-get-it-back-game\"><strong>THE NIGHTCAP GET-IT-BACK GAME<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the behemoth of a Saturday slate on Labor Day weekend finally hits the brakes, we skid into the stop light with a PAC-12 team hosting opponents on the west coast, and of course, our friends on Hawaii need to avenge the blowout loss at home in week 0. They\u2019ll clash with Western Kentucky at Midnight ET for the last thing you see before you pass out.

This week, the game that makes my stomach turn is #13 NC State (-11.5), heading down the road to play in-state foe, East Carolina. This is a trap game of all traps where the little brother gets up to play big brother, and it\u2019s a peculiar scheduling move by an NC State team with a lot of preseason ACC hype that could get wrecked come Saturday. This one stays weirdly close for a long time in Greenville.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/articles.runyourpool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AP21255677123632.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34082\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160603\/AP21255677123632.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160603\/AP21255677123632-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160603\/AP21255677123632-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160603\/AP21255677123632-215x120.jpg 215w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">(AP Photo\/Doug Murray)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-week-0-recap\"><strong>WEEK 0 RECAP<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We got things rolling in week zero, and it\u2019s always nice to begin the season with some W\u2019s. Northwestern covered +12 with ease and won outright, Illinois slipped into the end zone to cover over 43 points by a point, and FAU demolished a weak Charlotte defense to cover -6.5. Unfortunately, it was too quiet in Las Cruces for scoring, and Hawaii was humiliated at home to start the Timmy Chang era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Week Zero: 3-2 ATS, Season Overall: 3-2 ATS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-early-week-1-plays-for-alex\"><strong>EARLY WEEK 1 PLAYS FOR ALEX<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For starters, my birthday is Thursday, so I have to come in hot with action to celebrate. Give me the <strong>Under 60 in Oklahoma State vs. Central Michigan<\/strong> \u2013 my birthday games always tend to lack firepower historically, and the Pokes offense is known for slow starts to the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the Saturday slate, I\u2019m starting with <strong>ECU (+11.5)<\/strong> \u2013 my weird vibes prediction as an underdog cover bet in North Carolina. This game has CLOSE written all over it, so watch out Wolfpack!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the ATL tussle between UGA and Oregon, I like <strong>Over 53 points<\/strong>. I don\u2019t like it because I think this is a full-blown shootout, but I like it because I think Oregon squeaks on the board with a few scores (maybe late) to compliment a safe and sound Georgia W.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a uniquely fantastic matchup in the Lone Star State between #24 Houston and the up-and-coming UTSA Roadrunners, I\u2019m not falling into the trap of betting on UTSA here. The Cougs\u2019 offense is too much to handle and too versatile; I like <strong>Houston -3.5<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the marquee matchup in Columbus, this is one pick where I have to get brash and pick the Buckeyes to absolutely roll. Give me The <strong>Ohio State -17 <\/strong>to dog walk the Irish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are some other diamonds I\u2019m leaning on early this week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friday Play: <strong>Over 45.5 in Illinois vs. Indiana<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saturday Scrubs: <strong>Cincinnati\/Arkansas Under 52, UMass + 28.5, Texas Over 64<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/articles.runyourpool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AP22107077947278.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34083\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160811\/AP22107077947278.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160811\/AP22107077947278-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/30160811\/AP22107077947278-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">(AP Photo\/Brett Davis)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-eats-and-deets\"><strong>EATS AND DEETS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The teleport game: <\/strong>Take me to ATL so I can see those flashy Oregon uniforms in action vs. the defending champion UGA Bulldogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Goofiest line: <\/strong>#7 Utah opens the season -3 at the swamp against the unranked Florida Gators.
