Minnesota and North Carolina are helping kick off Week 1 of the 2024 college football season on Thursday. PJ Fleck’s Gophers opened as 2.5-point favorites at BetMGM, which wasn’t too surprising for a B1G team playing at home at night. There has been some notable line movement, however. Betting action has made UNC the current favorite at BetMGM. The book will be pulling for the Gophers to cover the 1.5-point spread.

UConn at Maryland, Saturday, 12 p.m. ET (FS1) BetMGM College Football Odds: Maryland by 20 1/2. Series record: Maryland leads 2-1. Maryland must replace standout quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa after he gave the Terrapins several years of stability at the position. Billy Edwards Jr., MJ Morris and Cameron Edge are candidates to step in. UConn enters its third season under coach Jim Mora. He’s 9-16 so far. The Huskies are one of a small number of major college football independents, and there’s talk of the program joining the Big 12 eventually. So the progress — or lack thereof — for UConn football may be under a significant microscope this year.

ESPN’s Football Power Index is predicting every game of the 2024 college football season, including the full game-by-game win probabilities for Iowa. Coming off another 10-win season, Iowa checks in with the 6th-best chance to win the conference per the preseason Big Ten Championship odds via FanDuel. However, the overall makeup of the Hawkeyes lends Kirk Ferentz’s team to a lower outlook on the FPI.
