Week 10 SEC Picks and College Football Best Bets
By Evan Ertel
Auburn (-12.5) @ Vanderbilt (O/U 49)
Evan: A part of me really wants to take the Commodores here, while absolutely knowing it is the wrong play. Wouldn’t it be great if I could say I was on the right side of a Vandy upset? Who would ever do that? Auburn -12.5
Justin: Vandy has been terrible against the spread, and this isn’t that big of a number for Auburn to have to cover. Auburn: -12.5
Andrew: I’m definitely not making this pick based on AU handling State. Freeze went back to an offensive approach that looked more like what we expected from him, and it worked perfectly. The confidence will help Thorne a lot. And Vandy is awful. Auburn -12.5
John: I saw a dumb tweet recently that basically said that Vandy was the Mississippi State of the East. I don’t agree. And in terms of transitive performance, I think Vandy performs worse against Auburn than we did. Auburn -12.5
Ethan: Mississippi State’s miserable defense fixed Auburn’s flawed offense. The Commodores don’t exactly have a ton of talent and it seems likely that Hugh Freeze has figured out how to get his team moving now. Auburn -12.5
Ryan: Vanderbilt is terrible and continues to have one of the worst if not the worst ATS records in the country. Auburn should bully them and be able to move the ball with their rushing attack and get this spread by the end. Auburn -12.5
