The Games
Not going to go over the three power rating plays, as I really don't have any opinion on the three.Texas A&M at LSU:
One of the most entertaining games on the schedule, Texas A&M visits LSU in an SEC showdown. The Tigers are coming off a disappointing loss to Alabama, while the Aggies had a week off since outlasting Mississippi State 51-41.
Texas A&M has scored at least 41 points in every game this season and see no reason they can't put up at least that many against LSU. While it's tempting to take the Aggies as an underdog in this spot, I'm in no hurry to buck the system that sees home teams cover the spread a high percentage of the time when the total is at least 70 points.
Instead of playing a side, I'll lean to the over.
Baylor at Oklahoma State: Baylor faces its toughest test of the season here, visiting Oklahoma State and enters the game as an 8-point favorite. The Bears struggled a bit when visiting Kansas State and the Wildcats aren't nearly as well-rounded as Oklahoma State.
Have to take the home underdog in this case.
Missouri at Mississippi: Another game that could see plenty of points and I'll side with the over once again.
