NCAAF - SEC Bets - Week 10

11/1/2022

Last week was a bit boring in the SEC, as only one game finished with a margin in single digits. Georgia handled Florida with relative ease in Jacksonville, Tennessee dominated Kentucky 44-6 at home, and Missouri went on the road to knock off then ranked South Carolina in Columbia.

We have the potential for several good games in Week 10 with seven matchups featuring SEC teams across the league, but all eyes will be drawn to the back-to-back contests featuring #1 Tennessee and #3 Georgia at 3:30, followed by #6 Alabama at #10 LSU at 7:00. The Vols obtained the top spot in the initial CFP polls released on Tuesday, marking their first time being ranked #1 overall since their National Championship season in 1998. The winner of this game will essentially be a lock for a playoff bid assuming they take care of business in the final three weeks of the season, while the loser will have to hope for a lot of scenarios involving other top teams to go their way in the closing weeks.

The winner of the Alabama-LSU game will most likely clinch an SEC Championship berth, which will put either team just one big win away from a trip to the CFP. A loss on Saturday, however, will cut their playoff dreams short.

I’ve started to pull away a tad in the overall standings, but there’s still a long way to go until the finish line. I lead outright on the money line, as well as hold a tie with Ryne in picks against the point total. Micah is still first against the spread, which has been the case for the majority of the season. We have lots of intriguing matchups to pick this week, and not just with the clashes of the conference juggernauts, so let’s see where the BSSR experts place their faith and reputation in Week 10.
