SATURDAY

Louisiana-Monroe at Texas A&M
Kickoff: Noon ET
Friday Line: Texas A&M -34 (opened -32)
Over/Under: 64 (opened 58.5)
Public: 80 percent Aggies

The Play: Stay away.

Florida at Georgia
Kickoff: 3:30 p.m.
Friday Line: Georgia -11 (opened -12.5)
Over/Under: 47 (opened 51)
Public: 85 percent Bulldogs

Edwards: “The line moved two points late Wednesday or early Thursday. That might have been based on Todd Gurley’s additional two-game suspension, but Nick Chubb’s been good. The line didn’t change much in that Missouri game when Gurley was initially ruled out. Hell, they’ve been better since Gurley was suspended because everybody’s stepped up. The defense has played better and Hutson Mason has played better.

“Florida has not been an underdog of more than 7 points against Georgia since 1985, and I don’t have access to data before that. When you get into unfamiliar spots, you usually try to take advantage of them. But you can’t play Florida right now. They’ve got to have something good and positive early or this game could easily go sideways. But if that happens, I think we’ll see a typical Georgia-Florida game that goes to the wire.”

The Play: Stay away.

Kentucky at Missouri
Kickoff: 4 p.m. ET
Friday Line: Missouri -7.5 (opened -6.5)
Over/Under: 47 (opened 48)
Public: 55 percent Wildcats

Edwards: “Maty Mauk played better last week, but still Missouri only scored 24 against Vandy, so I don’t know that we’ll say that he’s snapped out of it. I was considering Missouri when it was 6.5 early in the week. Now that it’s North of 7, I don’t know that I’ll play it unless I buy the half-point to 7.

“I think it’s going to be a tight game, but I think Missouri is a little bit better. Kentucky played well last week against Mississippi State. They were in it the whole way, but now they’ve got to go on the road.”

The Play: Look for a book that has Missouri at 7 points or less.

Auburn at Ole Miss
Kickoff: 7 p.m. ET
Friday Line: Ole Miss -2 (opened -2.5)
Over/Under: 51 (opened 51)
Public: 68 percent Tigers

Edwards: “I was a little concerned early in the week with the injuries that Ole Miss has, but after practice yesterday, Hugh Freeze said all four of those guys will give it a go: two offensive linemen, their stud safety Cody Prewitt and their stud defensive end Robert Nkemdiche. They’re OK with the loss of Denzel Nkemdiche. They’re deep at linebacker. But if Prewitt and Robert Nkemdiche weren’t going to play, that was going to be an issue for me.

“I’ve been leaning Ole Miss all week. Just concerned about those injuries. Auburn’s defense really was awful last week and a lot of that clearly goes to Steve Spurrier. Not only did the Tigers give up 35 points, South Carolina was in the red zone three other times. Dylan Thompson threw a horrible pick in the first quarter when they were up 7-0.

“Ole Miss’ defense is still nasty. They didn’t lose last week because of their defense. They can shake that loss off very easily because they know they control their destiny by remaining in the top four of the College Football Playoff.”

The Play: Ole Miss.

Old Dominion at Vanderbilt
Kickoff: 7 p.m. ET
Friday Line: Vanderbilt -7 (opened -9)
Over/Under: 60 (opened 60)
Public: 56 percent Commodores

Edwards: “You see the single-digit number and it makes you consider Vanderbilt, but I love Old Dominion’s quarterback Taylor Heinicke. He’s going to play in the NFL and he scares me. ODU’s terrible on defense, but they’ve got a dynamite quarterback and they can score points. Vandy’s just not a team you lay points with, although I was proud of them for hooking me up with a spread win last week.”

The Play: Stay away.

Arkansas at Mississippi State
Kickoff: 7:15 p.m.
Friday Line: Mississippi State -10.5 (opened -10.5)
Over/Under: 47 (opened 64.5)
Public: 66 percent Bulldogs

Edwards: “Obviously Arkansas had its chances against Bama and Texas A&M. But let’s remember those games weren’t on the road. I made Mississippi State a 14.5-point favorite. Dak Prescott’s playing incredible. And I love the way the running back Josh Robinson’s playing. He’s rushed for 887 yards and 10 touchdowns averaging 7.3 yards per carry.

“I’ve been saying Arkansas will clip somebody at some point. I don’t think it’s going to be this week, though. It may be LSU after the open date at home or it could be Ole Miss or Missouri. But Mississippi State’s just too powerful, and the Bulldogs have a good run defense. We know Arkansas wants to pound it with Alex Collins and Jonathan Williams, but I think Josh Robinson is going to be the best running back on the field.

“Mississippi State should win by at least 14, I think.”

The Play: Mississippi State

Tennessee at South Carolina
Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET
Friday Line: South Carolina -6 (opened -7.5)
Over/Under: 56 (opened 56.5)
Public: 62 percent Gamecocks

Edwards: “I played South Carolina at 7 earlier in the week and I wish I would’ve waited, but I don’t think it’s going to matter. I like the Gamecocks a lot here. Big revenge game. They lost 23-21 in Knoxville last year after Marquez North made one of the best catches of the 2013 season, a one-handed, incredible grab going out of bounds that kept that drive alive. Then Tennessee got a last-second field goal. Who knows what would’ve happened with South Carolina’s season last year if Tennessee didn’t pull that upset.

“I know South Carolina’s won 11 games three years in a row and they’re sitting at 4-4, but I don’t think they’re down in the dumps. They had one of the most exciting games of the season last week. They played really well offensively, had their chances and just didn’t get it done. If they win out, they’ll go 9-4. That’s a good season by South Carolina’s standards.

“I just don’t think it’s all gloom and doom in Columbia like some people perceive it to be. I thought they played with a lot of emotion last week. It’s a night game at home and Tennessee’s only 2-5 ATS as a road dog under Butch Jones.”

The Play: South Carolina and a strong lean to the over.
