Vanderbilt @ Georgia – 12:00 PM ET on ESPN3.com
Vanderbilt comes into this game 2-3 straight-up and 3-2 against the spread, while Georgia has stumbled badly out of the gate and is 2-4 both SU and ATS. The Commodores have lost nine out of the last 10 games to the Bulldogs SU but are 5-5 ATS. They are actually 4-1 ATS in the last five games. Georgia should get the outright win, but will be pressed to cover such a large spread against a much improved Vanderbilt team.
Prediction: Vanderbilt +16 – Bet Now
Odds: Vanderbilt: +16 – Georgia: -16 – Over/Under: 48.5

Auburn was lucky to come away with a win after needing a last second field goal to get by Kentucky 27-24 as a 5 ½ road favorite. Arkansas has won three out of the last four ATS as an underdog and it does it again on Saturday.

#10 South Carolina @ Kentucky – 6:00 PM ET on ESPN2
It is hard to imagine how South Carolina does not suffer a letdown on the road after last week’s big upset, but the Gamecocks are 5-0 SU and 4-1 ATS in their last five games against Kentucky. It will also be interesting to see how the Wildcats bounce back from their heartbreaking loss to Auburn. The old ball coach Steve Spurrier will once again have his South Carolina team ready to go.
Prediction: South Carolina -5 – Bet Now
Odds: South Carolina: -5 – Kentucky: +5 – Over/Under: 54.5

Mississippi State @ #22 Florida – 7:00 PM ET on ESPNU
Mississippi State comes into this game riding a three game winning streak including a 24-12 win over Georgia a couple a weeks ago. The Bulldogs are 4-2 SU and 3-3 ATS. Florida desperately needs a big win to get back on track after a couple of rough weeks. The Gators are also 4-2 SU and 3-3 ATS. Mississippi State is 5-1-1 ATS in its last seven games against Florida and has the ability to keep this one close enough to cover again.

McNeese State @ #9 LSU – 7:00 PM ET on ESPN3.com
McNeese State, out of the IAA Southland Conference comes into this game 2-3 overall. LSU, looking to schedule a breather in the middle of a brutal SEC schedule does itself a huge favor by adding the Cowboys right before the huge showdown with Auburn. The Tigers are 6-0 SU but just 3-3 ATS. Even if they do not bring their A game, they roll in a complete mismatch.
Prediction: LSU -39.5 – Bet Now
Odds: McNeese State: +39.5 – LSU: -39.5 – Over/Under: NA

Mississippi @ #8 Alabama – 9:00 PM ET on ESPN2
Mississippi has had a challenging season so far with losses to Jacksonville State and Vanderbilt. The Rebels are 3-2 SU and 2-3 ATS. Alabama will be looking to get the bitter taste of defeat out of its mouth at the expense of a very average Ole Miss team. This one gets ugly early as the Crimson Tide makes a statement by winning this game by four or five touchdowns.
Prediction: Alabama -21.5 – Bet Now
Odds: Mississippi: +21.5 – Alabama: -21.5 – Over/Under: 55
