The 2025 college football season is officially underway, and Week 1 was filled with upsets, high-profile battles and highlight-reel plays. Week 2 kicks off on Friday, September 5 with James Madison visiting Louisville, and three other out-of-conference matchups.

While there aren't as many blockbuster games on the schedule this week, there is still a full slate of action on Saturday, and several great opportunities for entertainment and of course, betting.

For those looking to get in on the action, we are here to help.

BetSmart From Pickwatch

At Pickwatch, we're constantly looking for ways to evolve and improve our offerings to our users. That's why we recently introduced BetSmart, a new subscription service aimed at helping you wager wisely and lock in guaranteed profits while also netting potential big wins.

BetSmart offers much more than our traditional services providing subscribers with Expert Picks. Our new subscription package now offers several sports betting tools, including:

Middle Bets

In addition to the above sports betting tools, BetSmart also features a Middle Betting Tool.

Middle bets provide an opportunity to place two wagers on opposite sides of the same game, and potentially land in the middle to win both. These bets have great potential with limited risk, as you're guaranteed to win at least one of them.

While these are typically only part of the subsription service, here are three FREE opportunities for middles this weekend.
