Auburn was one of only two teams ranked in the top six in the AP poll last week to come away with a win, improving to 14-1 SU and 13-2 ATS over its last 15 games with a 41-7 victory over LSU. Mississippi State is a 3-point home underdog this Saturday at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com.
No. 9 TCU vs. No. 5 Baylor also pits two top teams against each other. TCU climbed into the top 10 and improved to 4-0 SU and ATS this season with its 37-33 upset at home against Oklahoma. Baylor has been in top Top 10 all season, racking up a 5-0 SU and ATS record in five games as a double-digit favorite. Baylor is a double-digit favorite again on Saturday, going off at -11 at home.
No. 12 Oregon and No. 18 UCLA both suffered losses as double-digit home favorites last week and will look to bounce back in this Pac-12 showdown in Pasadena on Saturday. Oregon is just 2-8 ATS over its last 10 games but is still favored on the road at -3.
No. 13 Georgia visits No. 23 Missouri in an important SEC East matchup. With the national spotlight placed firmly on the SEC West, the battle for the SEC East is an interesting one as well, and the winner of this game will be the favorite to take the division.
Texas and No. 11 Oklahoma square off in the latest installment of the Red River Shootout this Saturday in Dallas at the Cotton Bowl. The OVER is 7-1-1 in Oklahoma’s last nine games and 3-1 in the last four games between these two teams. Oklahoma is currently a 15-point favorite in this one.
