Point spreads are out! UK is currently -10.5 at S. Miss. I thought it would be right around 14.

Well, after last year's contest that is better than it could have been for sure.

There's a couple of head-scratchers right off the bat. S. Carolina is +6 at NC St. for example, which looks like a toss up to me. Some others:

UNC -11 at home against Cal. They might win but I dont see them covering that.
Ole Miss -24 vs. S. Alabama. Maybe half that.
Vandy -5.5 at Middle Tn. Vandy should win by two touchdowns.
Florida +4 home vs. Michigan. Not sure why Michigan is favored.
Alabama -7 vs. FSU...might be a little closer than that but I wouldn't touch it.

I like South Alabama, Vanderbilt and Florida.

I'm not sold on Vandy, and would not be shocked if Mid TN St gives them a run for their money.
I think the FL vs Michigan game is correct. I think the Wolverines win that one on a neutral field
I agree on Bama FSU. I don't think that is a bad line but I'd not argue if it was 3 or 10 either.

Not much movement so far. Vandy's down to -4.5, looks like a good bet for a Vandy fan but I wouldn't bet on them. It's Tony Franklin's second year back as OC at MTSU also so definitely take the over, whatever it is lol. Michigan's down a half point to 3.5, making it a little harder to take UF.

USC and NC State are playing at a neutral site as are Florida and Michigan. No home field in either game.

Yeah I didn't list SC and NCSU in Charlotte even though I think SC should be favored. I'll believe the Wolf pack hype when I see it.

Still not sure why Michigan is favored, even in Dallas.

Florida has suspended 10 players. Looks like they start with an L.
