I'm seeing odds for Mizzou at UGA and AR at AL from 28 to 31 points. I can't remember s time in recent memory where two separate SEC matchups had 30 point spreads on the same weekend. Do y'all think that they will both cover? I'm not a gambler, but I feel that pollsters look to see if a team "plays like it should" based on odds.
 
I wouldn't be shocked to see both cover. They're playing exceptional football and their opponents are weak.
 
After Alabama's "letdown win" from last week, I think that they will impose their will on Arkie, and easily cover.

I foresee Mizzou being just a bit tougher on UGA. They can sling the ball, and UGA's secondary, though statistically good, has been aided by a strong defensive line and backers, which is currently hindered by injuries. I foresee Mizzou scoring enough to not let UGA cover, although it still may be a 20+ point spread.

Alabama was favored by like 28 or so on the road at A&M last week and I said no major (big 5) team should ever be favored by 4+ TD's on the road at another Big 5 school. (Alabama didn't cover) Playing at home is a little different and I think Bama covers after a closer than expected game against T&M, but even at home 30+ is a lot of points. I wouldn't put money on either of them. For a team to win by 30 you pretty much need to hole the opponent to a FG or less and keep your starters in all game.
