Mississippi @ #23 Arkansas – 12:30 PM ET
Both of these teams are coming off a loss and desperately need to win this game to have any chance of keeping pace in the SEC-West. Mississippi (3-3, 1-2) lost to Alabama 23-10, but covered as a 20 point road underdog. Arkansas was a 3 ½ point road underdog against Auburn. The Razorbacks are 7-2 ATS in the last nine games between these two. There is currently no line on this game due to last week’s injury to Arkansas QB Ryan Mallett, who right now remains uncertain for this game.
Prediction: Arkansas NA – Bet Now
Odds: Mississippi: NA – Arkansas: NA – Over/Under: NA

#6 LSU @ #4 Auburn – 3:30 PM ET
LSU (7-0, 4-0) took a breather last week in a 32-10 win over IAA McNeese State, coming nowhere close to covering the 41 ½ point line as a home favorite. Auburn (7-0, 4-0) has lost four out of the last five games against LSU but is 3-2 ATS. It has not been favored in this series since 2006, when it squeezed out a 7-3 win at home as a 3 ½ point favorite. One thing is for sure, a Tiger is going to win this game, but this year lean towards the ones from Alabama.
Prediction: Auburn -6 – Bet Now
Odds: LSU: +6 – Auburn: -6 – Over/Under: 52

UAB @ #24 Mississippi State – 7:00 PM ET on ESPN
UAB (2-4), out of Conference-USA has struggled recently with losses in two of its last three games. The Blazers are coming off a 21-6 win over UTEP as three-point home favorite. Mississippi State (5-2, 2-2) has climbed back into the top 25 after four straight wins including a 10-6 upset of Florida last week as a 9 ½ point road underdog. Look for the Bulldogs to carry all that momentum into this game to keep things rolling in the right direction.

#21 South Carolina @ Vanderbilt – 7:00 PM ET
South Carolina (4-2, 2-2) had a tough time handling all its fame and fortune after knocking off Alabama two weeks ago; falling to Kentucky 31-28 this past week as a 5 ½ point road favorite. Vanderbilt (2-4, 1-2) was blanked by Georgia 43-0 last week, as the Commodores are starting to look like the team that only won two games all last year. Count on the old ball coach to have his Gamecocks ready to go this week.
Prediction: South Carolina -12.5 – Bet Now
Odds: South Carolina: -12.5 – Vanderbilt: +12.5 – Over/Under: 46

# 8 Alabama @ Tennessee – 7:00 PM ET on ESPN
Alabama (6-1, 3-1) continued its long crawl back to the top of the mountain with a methodical 23-10 win over Ole Miss, as the boys from Tuscaloosa believe a second straight national title is still within their grasps. Tennessee (0-3, 2-4) is still looking for its first conference win after getting blown out by Georgia 41-14 two weeks ago as an 11 ½ point road underdog. The Crimson Tide use the Volunteers as a whipping post to try and get the BCS’s attention.
Prediction: Alabama -16.5 – Bet Now
Odds: Alabama: -16.5 – Tennessee: +16.5 – Over/Under: 48

Georgia @ Kentucky – 7:30 PM ET
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: Georgia -4 – Bet Now
Odds: Georgia: -4 – Kentucky: +4 – Over/Under: 58
