If you had to put $1000 down against the spread on 1 game within the 3 SEC Top25 match-ups this week, which one would it be? Same question goes for betting straight up against the favorite too.

#13 Bama @ #8 UGA: Georgia favored by 2.5

#21 Miss St @ #14 A&M: A&M favored by 7

#3 Ole Miss @ #25 Florida: OM favored by 7.5

All three of those games could go either way. I would wait.

I see a close, low scoring game. I would be very surprised if we win by 10+, and shocked if we win by 14+. If I had to bet on one game, I would take Florida and the points.

the "hook" will get you - that 1/2 point is a bitch

I like the Gators and I REALLY like MSU, even without that extra 1/2 point

Step 1: Look up who LSU is playing.
Step 2: Make sure LSU is favored.
Step 3: If so, take the opponent and points.
Step 4: Profit


No, I'm not joking.

I'd wait for Georgia -1 and put it on them.

I really think everyone is blinded by this 4-0 record of Florida. They aren't good. Great secondary and overall decent defense but that offense is a turd. I don't see it being that close.

I'm serious. Al Borges is their O coordinator and they are as good as or better team than JaxSt. No WAY AU outscores them by 3+ TD's. No way.

I thought you were joking because they were not an option of the games to choose from. Not at the pick. I actually took that game but not for much.

Oh sorry. I made the mistake of just browsing OP. Didn't realize it was just for those exact games. I honestly am probably going to hold off on any action on any of those games. Just too close to call. Obviously I'm betting the AU/SJS. The only other SEC game I'm MAYBE considering getting in on is The MissSt/A&M game, though I think UGA probably covers too

You wager online or in person?

Wager online since I moved back to Dallas. Kind of sucks but I just do it for the action and to watch boring games and make them fun ha.

I'm by no means putting 1000 on any game. I was just in Vegas in May and went by Caesars Palace and put 200 down on MSU to win everything just for kicks. Just wondering what people would do if they HAD to this week with those 3 games. Don't know if I like any of them

I would listen to Drank. Guy is a fricking genius. Here was his prediction for the Auburn - MSU game.

quote:

Drank - ...our FG kicker continues to be a panty dropper ... And we get a least a couple FG's to avoid the shut out.


OK, so he missed it by one FG, but that was pretty good.
