LSU is a 14.5-point home underdog at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. This line may seem disrespectful to the Tigers, but it is hard to argue with given that the Crimson Tide are averaging 54.1 points per game and have won every game on their schedule by at least 22 points. The winner of this game will have the inside track at the top spot in the SEC West.
The top spot in the SEC East is also up for grabs on Saturday as No. 6 Georgia (-10) visits No. 11 Kentucky. Kentucky sneaked by Missouri with a 15-14 win last Saturday, giving both the Wildcats and the Bulldogs matching 7-1 SU and 4-4 ATS records heading into this game. Georgia is 15-3 SU in its last 18 games against SEC opponents.

With the Texas Longhorns losing to the Oklahoma State Cowboys last Saturday, the Big 12 is down to two teams with only one loss on their record that could still potentially advance to the College Football Playoff with a conference championship.
Both of those teams are on the road this Saturday as the No. 12 West Virginia Mountaineers visit the No. 15 Longhorns (-2.5) and the No. 7 Oklahoma Sooners (-10.5) take on the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Oklahoma is 8-0 SU and ATS in its last eight road games against teams with winning records per the OddsShark College Football Database.
This Saturday’s road game against Northwestern may be the biggest remaining threat on No. 3 Notre Dame’s remaining schedule. The Fighting Irish are a 7.5-point road favorite against the Wildcats, who defeated Notre Dame the last time these two teams played and are 7-0 SU and 6-1 ATS in their last seven games after winning the previous game in a head-to-head matchup.
Rounding out the Top 10 in action this week are Louisville at No. 2 Clemson (-38), No. 14 Penn State at No. 5 Michigan (-10.5), Nebraska at No. 8 Ohio State (-21), Temple at No. 9 UCF (Thursday), and California at No. 10 Washington State (-10.5).
