On plane pushing back on my way to Vegas! 
Need some expertly advice on some SEC game picks (any others too) I am not too good on betting the spread so need some help.
See ya at the Hard Rock!

I would take Auburn at +8.5 if you can get it, the game will be closer than that.

I am thinking about that. I never bet on my team since I am biased but I think this would be more of a fact based bet and not a homer one.

Au is easy money

I like the Saints if the line get to +3 against Philly. It's at 2 1/2 now.

Sentiment like this is how Vegas thrives.

Mizzou all day every day over OSU. I wouldn't be too interested in Bama/OU. Bama is great and OU is meh but it's hard to believe Bama is going to come out swinging. Who knows. Ohio State over Clemson. Auburn over FSU. The public is giving too much credit to FSU because they are geographically from the SEC. Their schedule was shite and they might pay for it.

Mizzou plus 2 looks good to me.
Auburn plus 8-9 and even Auburn ML. I think they win outright keeping the title in the conference.

I'd bet your trip back won't be nearly as festive as the one out there. I had to come back after the '73 Sugar Bowl and the '72 Orange Bowl...I know.

Nebraska had a shitty schedule in '95 also. FSU has blown out every team they've played, not even a close game all year. That's a lot different than Notre Dame last year who was undefeated but had close games against teams like Pitt.
FSU is really, really good, that's all I'm saying.

This.
I'd also take Alabama minus anything.

All day!! OU is going to get skull fricked.
Mizzou all day too whatever the line is.
I like the Barners and their 1 trick pony offense with the points.
Take Vandy at -3

Bet on the state of Alabama dominating. Bama rolls Oklahoma tonight and Auburn outscores FSU Monday. Alabama baby!

Vandy is the only remaining SEC team I like ATS. Don't let your homerism for our conference affect your wallet. Vegas already builds some extra "SEC!" points into the lines because that's exactly what the betting squares do.

True, but sometimes I think they go the opposite route in order to attract the anti-SEC folks. Wisconsin being favored by 2 over USC was evidence enough of that.

Possible, but I didn't think the Wisc-SC line was egregious. The game was a tossup until Wisc's qb went down, and SC could have easily lost if that had not happened.
Though I wouldn't personally bet it, I would take OU tonight if I had to. They have to be much more excited to be playing this game than Bama - and Bama lays off the gas when they have the game locked up, so 17 could be a tough number to beat.
As for Mizzou, I just think Okie St is better than them - the line has already moved 5 points in Okie's favor, so some heavy money exploited a bad early line when they saw it.
As for Auburn, I think this NC game will be a repeat of last year's. Hope I'm wrong on that though.

Missouri +2 is a lock. Oklahoma State is disinterested. Going to be a massacre.

But if FSU wins but doesn't cover you're screwed both ways.
