Yes its early for the thread, but there are some cool games to talk about and I wanted to get the thread up before you-know-who-E gives me grief for forgetting.
I have to say I was surprised by a couple of the spreads in the SEC big games. I have this deal I do with my son where we guess the spreads for big games. We are usually within a point or two, we rarely miss by more than 3 points.
I would have guessed Auburn to be a 3 point favorite over Arkansas. Vegas has them at 10. Wow. That's a lot of points to give to a team that just beat Ole Miss and put up a ton of yards on Alabama.
Speaking of the evil empire, I would have had them a 12 point favorite over undefeated Texas A&M. Vegas has them 18 now. They'll probably win by 30 now that I think about it. You know you are good when you host the undefeated number 6 team in the country and have to give 18 points.
LSU opened up a 4.5 favorite over Ole Miss. Its up to 6 now. I would have guessed 3.
Those are three pretty good teams you can get with a lot of points.
LSU still controls their destiny to win the SEC (assuming Auburn loses at least one). All they have to is beat Ole Miss, Florida, Texas A&M, Alabama and Arkansas. No hill for a stepper.
