UK will NOT lose this week. Guaranteed. The others:
Mississippi State (-22.5) gets BYU at home. Our next opponent is 3-2 and still a bit overrated imo. BYU isn’t very good though, with their only win coming over Portland State. Still, that’s a big spread, probably a little too big.
Vandy and Ole Miss (-3) battle in Oxford. Vandy doesn’t do much offensively while Ole Miss is pretty defensively challenged. Vandy wins by around 5.
South Carolina at Tennessee (-2.5). S. Carolina has made a living this season winning off of smoke and mirrors while Butch Jones continues to sweat things out in Knoxville. The banty roosters win this handily though, by 12 or 13 points, and Jones goes into hiding.
Arkansas at Alabama (-30.5). Arkansas gets Bama and Auburn back to back and already had their bye week. No bowl for the Hogs this year. Bama by 30.
Auburn (-6.5) at LSU. LSU held on to win 17-16 at Florida in a game they led 17-3. Maybe Orgeron could teach Stoops and Jones a thing or two about how to beat Florida. Nah. Just the law of averages probably. Auburn beat Ole Miss by 21 after leading by 35 but that one was never in question. Auburn by about 16.
Missouri is at Georgia (-30.5). Georgia won’t be messing around and puts this one in the no-doubter column early on. Georgia by 32.
Texas A&M at Florida (-3.5). Is Sumlin off the hot seat now that A&M played respectably against Bama, albeit in a home loss? If he is it’s probably only temporary as it’s time for his team’s annual second-half swoon. Meanwhile in Gainesville, Mac is probably being taunted by passing school children for losing to Ed Orgeron. I can’t think of a single reason to watch this game. A&M should win this by 5 or 6 points but it is the second half of the season....
And Boston College is at Louisville (-20). The northeast Catholics are 2-4 this year against a respectable schedule. It’s a trap game for UL as they go to Tallahassee next week and might be a whole lot closer than UL fans think it will be. Louisville by 9.
