Week 1 of the 2017 college football season is sure to be a good one, with several prime matchups between Power 5 schools.

Of course, bettors will have plenty of time to place money on those matchups this offseason, as early lines have already been released.

According to 5Dimes.eu, three SEC teams are favored to win their premier 2017 openers, while two others face an uphill battle:

Both Alabama and Tennessee will be favored in their matchups against ACC foes in Atlanta, while Florida is a touchdown-plus underdog against Michigan in Arlington, Texas, and Texas A&M is a narrow underdog against UCLA in the Rose Bowl.

LSU is the other SEC squad favored to win its opening week showdown against a power school, currently a 14-point favorite against BYU.

Of course, between transfers, injuries and coaching changes, a lot can and will happen before the 2017 season officially kicks off, so expect plenty of movement on these lines as the offseason wears on.
