College football odds for Week 1 are on the board and receiving plenty of attention as we tackle all the major storylines of the weekend. The New Mexico Lobos and Texas A&M Aggies meet at Kyle Field in College Station on Saturday, September 2 at 7:00 p.m. ET on ESPN.

Here's everything you need to know about the college football odds for the Week 1 game between New Mexico and Texas A&M: the opening lines, spreads, betting trends and more. Check back regularly for updates.

New Mexico vs No. 23 Texas A&M Odds

• Opening point spread: Texas A&M -38
• Opening moneyline: Texas A&M -80000/New Mexico +2750
• Opening total: Over/Under 50.5 points scored
• Time: 7 p.m. ET Saturday (ESPN)

UPDATE 4 P.M. ET MONDAY: Texas A&M is coming off a subpar 5-7 SU/4-7-1 ATS season. On the bright side, though, the Aggies finished with a bang, upending LSU 38-23 as 10-point home underdogs.

And the rankings seem to indicate an expectation for a better year in College Station.

Playing New Mexico to start the season certainly won't hurt A&M. The Lobos went a meager 2-10 SU/3-8-1 ATS in 2022, losing their last nine games (1-8 ATS).

Earlier in the summer, Texas A&M spent a couple weeks at -40 on Caesars' college football Week 1 odds board. But the spread has been stable at -38 since July 2. The total dropped to 49 by July 19 and hasn't moved since.
