Georgia minus 3 at Bama - Anyone remember the last time Bama was an underdog at home? Its happened only two times since 2007. Georgia was a 1.5 favorite at Bama two years ago. The last team to be favored over Bama at home before then was LSU in 2007, Saban’s first year at Bama.

5-0 Indiana is a 9.5 point favorite at Nebraska - There’s a lot to unpack here. How the mighty have fallen, Nebraska was once a powerhouse. Now they get 9.5 points at from Indiana? And Ahmad Hudson wants to go there? Lol Indiana is the most over rated team in college football, not near the team they had with Mendoza. Who wouldnt be undefeated with their schedule this year. They have wins over North Texas, Howard, Western Kentucky, Northwestern and Rutgers. Indiana is not the number 6 team in football, they would be a two td underdog at Texas, Bama, Georgia or LSU. Vegas knows.

Texas is -9 at Oklahoma.- Man has this game lost its luster. Is there a more disappointing team in college football than Oklahoma this year. Well yes, see below.

Texas A&M plus 3 at Missouri - No coach does less with more than Elko is doing at A&M this year. A&M is loaded with top talent. Bum Phillips once said the definition of a good coach is one who could take mine players and beat yorn and then take yorn players and beat mine. Would A&M have beat LSU this year if you switched coaches? The Aggie fan base has to be miserable this year.

Tenn -14 ar Arkansas - Wtf Jerry Jones? Lol. How did these two once powerhouse programs get so mediocre?

LSU -10 at Kentucky - Give Kentucky credit for being an over achiever and a tough out. If Brian Kelly was still LSUs coach, smart money would be on Kentucky. Ten seems like a lot of points to give to a scrappy team like Kentucky, but the talent differential between LSU and Kentucky is huge. Since 2019, LSU has consistently played down to less talented teams on the road. This will be a good litmus test for Kiffin, can LSU under Kiffin not struggle against teams with inferior talent as Kelly always did?

First thoughts…..

GA vs Bama no clue.
Give me Ind….but not 100% sure.
TX, Mizzou, Tenn, and LSU all day.

Says the guy that is not a pro gambler.

Hard not to take Bama at home getting points. And LSU -10 seems high but said the same thing about TAM spread when they played at LSU -9.5.

Kiffin took a superior OMiss team to Lexington and LOST to a terrible UK team. That loss MAY have kept OM out of the CFP that season.

I am not sure the point you are making. Are you saying that Kiffin has a history of losing when he has superior talent because of that one game? I think the opposite is true throughout most of Kiffin’s career, that is, he has a history of winning against superior talent, particularly at Ole Miss where he made them contenders.

Nick Saban lead a Bama team that lost to UL Monroe. Every coach ever has lost games they should have won.

Are you saying Kiffin doesnt have a history of outcoaching teams that have more talent than his teams?
