We are either already on SSI or are Coctail Party bound, so forgive us for not having our usual wise pearls of wisdom this week. We will do better prior to the Tennessee Tech game.
Granitedawg (15-6)
Miami (-7) at Wake- Miami covers.
Cal (-6.5) at Arizona State- Cal Covers.
Georgia Tech (-11.5) at Vanderbilt- If UGA can run all over Vandy, then Tech can too. I think that will be a common theme. Tech covers big.
Corbindawg (13-7-1, 1.5 GB)
Georgia Tech (-11.5) at Vanderbilt-Tech is so focused right now, Vandy won’t come close to stopping their rushing attack. If UGA could run all over Vandy, Tech will have over 300 yards rushing. Go with the Nerds.
Georgia (+14.5) vs. Florida– Florida’s defense is good. Great. Charlie Strong is the best defensive coordinator in the SEC and hopefully will get a headcoaching job as far away from the Southeastern Conference as possible. However, the Gators have not seen a player like AJ Green. I think we stand a good chance of hanging with the Gators, and UGA has had their embarrassing loss this season. Florida hasn’t covered the spread the last two weeks; go with the Dawgs taking the 14.5.
South Carolina at Tennessee (-6)– Go with the Ol Ball Coach in this one, The original loudmouth of the SEC over the newboy. Look for Stephen Garcia and The OBC to have a few tricks up his sleeve for Grandpa Kiffin.
Kensingtondawg (11-9-1, 3.5 GB)
Akron at Northern Illinois (-12). Akron is a good team that hasn’t play to their potential. They will this week. Take Akron and the 12.
Tulane at LSU (-36) Trap game for LSU with the Tide on the deck next week. Tulane will be fired up since it’s a interstate rivalry. Take Tulane and the 36.
USC (-3) at Oregon Everyone is picking Oregon for the upset. But if you look closer Oregon has benefitted greatly from turnovers and special teams plays. They won’t get that benefit against The Men of Troy. Trojans Cover.
Ucheedawg (9-12, 6 GB)
GT (-11.5) at Vandy- With a terrible offense and a not-so-great defense, Vandy will struggle mightily with the nerds on Saturday. Look for GT to win comfortably, easily covering the 12.5.
Ole Miss (-4.5) at Auburn- I typically don’t like to bet on Auburn games, but we’re only talking 4 points here. Auburn is starting to slide, and I look for the Rebels to continue that trend. Luckily, Auburn gets an easy foe next week to rest up, but for now, Ole Miss will win big on the Plains.
South Carolina at UT (-6)- UT is coming off a great defensive battle against Bama, while SC has quietly had a nice season. 6 points is a lot in this one, as it should prove to be another typical SEC type struggle for both teams. I look for td’s to be scarce on Rocky Top this weekend. Take the points and the Cocks in this one.
