SEC football resumes Saturday at noon ET as Ole Miss travels to Memphis and Mississippi State hosts Louisiana Tech. There are a total of six games with at least one conference member on the day.

Brian Edwards, a long-time Las Vegas handicapper with an emphasis on SEC football, will provide his thoughts and insights on the line moves throughout the 2015 season.

Ole Miss at Memphis
Kickoff: noon ET
Friday Line: Ole Miss -10.5 (opened -10.5)
Over/Under: 71 (opened 68)
Public: 59 percent Rebels

Analysis: “I think it’s a good line. I made Ole Miss an 11-point favorite. I’m concerned with Ole Miss’ injuries on defense. C.J. Johnson and Issac Gross have been gone. Tony Conner, they really miss him.

“Memphis has got a very good offense. Memphis also played on a Friday night two weeks ago, so they had an open date and an extra day to prepare. They’ve had plenty of time to get healthy and prepare. With Texas A&M on deck, I think this is a dangerous game for Ole Miss. I think Memphis is going to hang around, and if it can force a few turnovers, might have a chance at a stunning upset.

“Quarterback Paxton Lynch may play in the NFL. Memphis coach Justin Fuente might be in the SEC as soon as next year. I would think he’s pretty high on South Carolina’s radar in terms of realistic candidates. Ole Miss is about 45 minutes, one hour tops drive from Memphis, so they’ll be a lot of Rebels fans in the stands.”

The Play: Slight lean to Memphis.

Louisiana Tech at Mississippi State
Kickoff: noon ET
Friday Line: Mississippi State -13.5 (opened -13.5)
Over/Under: 60.5 (opened 60)
Public: 52 percent Mississippi State Bulldogs

Analysis: “Louisiana Tech has an explosive offense. For those who have lost track of Jeff Driskel, he’s having a hell of a year for La. Tech, and he’s got an NFL running back behind him in Kenneth Dixon, who has been crushing it in Conference USA for several years now.

“Louisiana Tech is going to score points. I’m not sure they can slow down Dak Prescott. I made the number Mississippi State minus-12. I would prefer for it to go to 14 or 14.5.

The Play: Slight lean to Louisiana Tech that becomes stronger at minus-14 or minus-14.5.

Alabama at Texas A&M
Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. ET
Friday Line: Alabama -4 (opened -5)
Over/Under: 53.5 (opened 52.5)
Public: 61 percent Crimson Tide

Analysis: “This is just a game I really don’t know what to do with. I’m still not impressed with Alabama’s offense. This is not your vintage Alabama offense. Texas A&M’s defense is so vastly improved. The two defensive ends, Myles Garrett and Daeshon Hall, have 13 sacks between them. A&M has been porous on defense the last two years, but John Chavis has got that side of the ball fixed.

“Kyle Allen has been playing well with a TD-INT ratio of 13-to-2. What a year freshman receiver Christian Kirk is having, leading the SEC in yards and a big factor on special teams as well. I think it’s going to be a heck of a game, but barring a line move, I’m on the sideline here. I would need a few more points to take A&M, and with the way Alabama has handled big games — recently against Georgia — it’s hard to go against them here.

“Texas A&M and Chavis got two weeks, so that’s extra time to devise a plan. Alabama struggled to run the ball last week. They averaged 2.9 yards per carry against Arkansas. That’s got to be concerning for Nick Saban.”

The Play: Pass.

Vanderbilt at South Carolina
Kickoff: 4 p.m. ET
Friday Line: South Carolina -2.5 (opened -4)
Over/Under: 43.5 (opened 43.5)
Public: 66 percent Gamecocks

Analysis: “This is a very tough game for South Carolina after the coaching change with Steve Spurrier’s resignation. Vanderbilt has had two weeks to get ready and a little momentum. Even though they lost at Ole Miss, the Commodores played extremely well and had to feel good about the performance. So they’ve won two of their last three.

“Under Derek Mason, Vandy is 5-1 against the spread as a road underdog. Most of those spots have been big underdog numbers. But I like what I’ve seen out of Vandy. I had them against Middle Tennessee State. Obviously they had to come back in the fourth quarter, but Johnny McCrary continues to get better. Ralph Webb is a beast.

“South Carolina put together some drives against LSU. I believe we’ll get Perry Orth at quarterback again, and he was so-so last week.”

The Play: Lean toward Vandy and the over.

Florida at LSU
Kickoff: 7 p.m. ET
Friday Line: LSU -7 (opened -9.5)
Over/Under: 46 (opened 46.5)
Public: 58 percent Tigers

Analysis: “After the Will Grier suspension, when the sports books reposted the line, it got to 9.5 in a few places. I took Florida and bought a half-point to plus-10. Now it’s 7, and it’s hard to recommend.

“From everything I’ve read, the team is handling this pretty well. Obviously there’s going to be some shock initially, but Jim McElwain said they found out Sunday, so they’ve had some time to shake it off. Treon Harris has gotten all the reps at practice this week. He started six games last year and he went 4-2, but he could easily have been 6-0.

“Treon Harris has played in some big games. It’s not like four years ago when (then-Florida quarterback) Jacoby Brissett was a true freshman and was taking his very first collegiate snap at Tiger Stadium. Treon has chemistry with his teammates. He’s not as good as Grier, but he does some things well.

“Florida is all about its defense anyway. I like the way they’re going to be able to stack the box with eight, maybe even nine on occasion. I’m not saying Florida will shut down Leonard Fournette, but I think it will hold him to a season low. When you have Vernon Hargreaves III and Jalen Tabor, two of the best cover corners in the country if not the two best — I know LSU’s receivers are very good and explosive, but I don’t think a lot of LSU quarterback Brandon Harris.

“I won’t be surprised if Hargreaves and Tabor get an interception apiece. If Florida does create turnovers, they’re going to be right there to win this game.”

The Play: Lean to Florida, especially if the number goes back above plus-7.

Missouri at Georgia
Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET
Friday Line: Georgia -15 (opened -16)
Over/Under: 46 (opened 45.5)
Public: 67 percent Tigers

Analysis: “I think the key element is, can Missouri produce any offense? How healthy is Russell Hansbrough and can he get anything going, because they just are struggling offensively. Georgia’s defense will not pose challenges like Florida did. But if you can’t score, you can’t win. I made this number plus-11, and it’s rare that I can get 4 extra points on a dog.

“I gave Missouri heavy consideration this week, but I think back to last year and the way Georgia stumped them. Just watching the ineptitude of that Missouri offense last week is tough also. If Maty Mauk was back, maybe I would think differently of it. I just can’t trust Missouri’s offense.”

The Play: Pass, or play Missouri if you’re brave.
