UT was like +33.5
UGA was +33.5
Home vs TAMU is +14.5

I get they are bad, but they are easily covering every week. May put some on this. Hard for TAMU to go onto road in SEC and win by over 2 TDs. Don't see it.

Aggies are better than Texas imo and will handle moo moo state with ease. That's one bet moo moo won't cover.

One of these things is not like the other. Good luck!

Have to hand it to Lebby.. he has taken this shite sandwich he was handed this year and have them playing decent ball. There has been very noticeable improvement of late. Not the same team that looked completely lost against Florida.

Gamblers are seeing that MSU isn't as bad as initially thought. They're playing tough and keep hanging around. 14.5 points is going to be difficult for the aggy to cover.

I’m really starting to like VB at QB. He’s got a lot to learn but his ceiling is really high.

If A&M plays to their talent, they easily beat the spread and prove they are quite possibly the best team in the SEC after next weekend. And it will be another wild weekend!

This is a tough one. Nobody really knows who anm is. They were atrocious outside of 1 game. That 1 game was very impressive but I don't think it establishes them just yet.

The first two should have never been over 30. Vegas is learning.

Who's better - Arkansas or Tennessee?

Aggies and Arkansas are my two preseason dark horse SEC picks and both are looking good after shaky starts.

Absolutely. You can see the loads of raw talent. The game is pretty fast for him right now but that’s nothing that experience won’t take care of.

Probably based on the 41-17 Toledo loss

33.5 against UGA was like someone handing you their ATM card and PIN.

He has the defense playing as hard as anyone. The talent gap is obvious with terribly weak offensive and defensive lines. Linebackers and safeties making most of the tackles. Most surprising is how our boy child quarterback matured and gained a little confidence in the second half. Kind of slung it around a bit.

I think the market has caught up this week
A&M should cover for sure

Texas would have also had they not turned it over as much as they did and dropped easy TD passes

I wouldn’t characterize that as an absurd spread

MSST has the #125 defense and #78 offense. The Ags have the #32 defense & #55 offense.

The Bulldogs always manage to give us a great game in Starkville, so I don’t think it’s a gimme. But the spread seems reasonable.

As am A&M fan of almost 50 years, never bet on the Ags to cover on the road.

Johnny Football could be handing it to John David Crow and he'd run for 3 yards on the road.

JMO but when nothing is expected of you and you have nothing to lose you actually play better and harder. Just human nature.
