SEC Lines Week the 1-2-3-4-Fif
Hi. I’m Andrew. Remember what I said in regards to last week? I was just a tick worse this week. If you consider my 19-12 record overall? It’s been somewhat of a degeneration. 7-1 to 6-2 to 4-4 to 3-5. I’m doing well, right? Right. Anyway. Let’s see if this is an exercise in futility or if I can gain redemption this week. But it will be fun.
Obviously, the team that’s dropping down is going to find a way to get themselves a win. So South Carolina? Congratulations. You’re going to beat South Carolina State.
Auburn +2 @ Tennessee
I explained this already. It should still be on the front page.
Alabama -16.5 @ Kentucky
I know Alabama’s linebacking corps is young and inexperienced beyond McClain. And I’m sure that the offense will bring a better performance after last week. That being said? Alabama’s offense is really good. McElroy is downright professional as a quarterback. Lindley may shut down Jones, but Big Blue can be run on. It will be worth 17 points.
LSU +2.5 @ Georgia
Both teams have won their games on the basis of derring-do and overcoming scrappy opposition. Neither one has been terribly impressive. LSU has played flat. Georgia is mistake prone with a bad defense. LSU has something much bigger down the pike next week. But Les Miles is a master of escape fartistry. There’s a second wind blowing in between the hedges. It brings a second chance for #4 love.
Ole Miss @ +9.5 Vanderbilt
Sheerly a gut instinct here. There is no empirical evidence that Ole Miss won’t bounce back nicely. There is empirical evidence that Vandy can’t score points. But in a weird season? The dreg of the SEC will bring a huge scare to the giggidy.
Georgia Tech -6 @ Mississippi State
Here’s the thing. The Fighting Cowbell is a tough team. But a good run game can gash them. The divinity of Georgia Tech’s run game may be questionable. However? The meme “you can’t prepare for the flexbone” applies here. Take the favorites. Be happy.
Arkansas -1 vs. Texas A&M
Shootouts are fun. I know Alabama exposed them as a team without a great offensive line. But you know what? A&M doesn’t generate near the rushability as Alabama did. With time to throw? A&M will get gashed. Expect the total to break 80 combined. 4 word review? There will be toast.
