Week 2 of the 2024 college football season is upon us, and the slate is full of must-see matchups. The anticipated Saturday showdowns include No. 3 Texas (-7) at No. 10 Michigan, Colorado at Nebraska (-6.5), and No. 14 Tennessee (-9) vs. No. 24 NC State.

Before you make any Week 2 college football predictions, be sure to checkout the Week 2 college football picks from our proven CFB expert Thomas Casale.

A frequent guest on national radio and TV shows to discuss college sports, Casale has been betting -- and winning -- for more than 30 years. 

Over the past two college football seasons, Casale is 122-92-5 (57%) overall and 26-8 (76.4%) in bowl games -- all publicly documented. Just last week, Casale advised SportsLine members to back Nebraska (-27.5) against UTEP. The Cornhuskers easily covered in a 40-7 win over UTEP.

Now, he's turned his attention to the 2024 Week 2 college football odds (see the latest college football lines for each game this week on our college football odds page) and is revealing his two top plays. 

We can tell you Casale is backing Auburn (-12.5) against Cal on Saturday. "Auburn could be a sleeping giant in the SEC this season. I'm not saying the Tigers are going to compete with teams like Georgia or Texas yet, although Hugh Freeze has really built up the talent on both sides of the ball. When you watch Auburn play now, the Tigers look like an SEC team with size and speed everywhere." 

Casale has also found two other college football picks he loves, including backing a total in a game that "looks like a shootout." You ABSOLUTELY need to see what he's playing before locking in any college football picks.
