Pamela Maldonado and Mark Zinno share their top Week 1 college football bets, focusing on three games and five wagers total.

Their first pick is Toledo at Michigan State UNDER 47. Toledo has 58 newcomers and just one returning starter, while Michigan State lost key offensive players, leading to a likely ground-heavy, low-scoring game.

The second bet is Miami (Ohio) +17 at Pittsburgh, with the UNDER 48.5. They trust Miami's defensive coordinator, Chuck Brechin, to contain a Pittsburgh offense that struggled last season.

Maldonado emphasizes going light in Week 1, focusing on team continuity and coaching schemes rather than just star power, making these strategic picks stand out.
