Week 2 of the 2018 college football season doesn’t present the most exciting schedule. With every team in the AP Top 25 set to play Friday or Saturday and just two games featuring a pair of ranked teams, many of the betting lines are either incredibly high or nonexistent.

No.1 Alabama, No.4 Ohio State, No.5 Wisconsin, No.8 Notre Dame and No.20 Boise State are all favored by more than 30 points. No point spreads are available for No.7 Auburn, No.11 LSU, No.12 Virginia Tech and No.22 Miami, among others, because their contests are expected to be so one-sided.

The weekend’s two intriguing matchups are No.17 USC against No.10 Stanford and the game between No.3 Georgia and No.24 South Carolina. The Trojans are six-point underdogs in a pivotal Pac-12 matchup. The Bulldogs are favored by 10 points, even though South Carolina is at home.

No.16 TCU is a 22-point road favorite in Friday’s only game. The Horned Frogs won their season opener by 48 points.

Below are the betting odds for all the Week 2 college football games with top-25 teams, including the point spreads and totals. These are the consensus odds from multiple sportsbooks in Las Vegas and online, via OddsShark.
