Florida -8 @ Tennessee, Bodog.com , 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS: This will be the first real test for the young Gators after two easy wins over Western Kentucky and Troy. The Volunteers rebounded from their season opening loss at Cal against a good Southern Miss team winning 39-19 SU and covering as a -12-point home favorite. This game is always worth watching and looks to be good this year.
Alabama -3 ½ (-105) vs. Arkansas: Sportsbetting.com , 6:45 p.m. ET, ESPN: This line is for the public while the experts like the Hogs. Arkansas has the best back field in the nation with Doak Walker award winner Darren McFadden and All-SEC RB Felix Jones while Alabama has a $4-million dollar coach.

Southern Cal -10 (50 o/u) @ Nebraska, Sportsbook.com , 8:00 p.m. ET, ABC: The Trojans must step up and prove they are Number-One in one of the most anticipated games of the year. A win over SC would signal to the nation the Huskers are back!
Michigan -7 ½ (-320 ML 43 ½ o/u) vs. Notre Dame, SBGglobal.com, ABC: Who would have thought we would be looking at these two coming into this game at 0-2 SU and ATS. Life will get ugly for the loser of this one.
Auburn -13 ½ (-105) vs. Mississippi State, Bodog.com 12:30 p.m. ET Lincoln Financial Sports: The Tigers, embarrassed from losing at home to South Florida, look to get back on the winning track with the Bulldogs coming to town. MSU picked up a SU win and cover (-5 ½) ATS with its 38-17 win at Tulane last week. The Tigers are 1-1 SU but 0-2 ATS. Look for the Tigers to be 0-3 ATS after this game; however they will probably win SU.
Ohio State -4 @ Washington, Sportsbetting.com , 3:30 p.m. ET ESPN: The Buckeyes won 20-2 SU last week in their game with Akron but they didn’t look good doing it falling short ATS as a -28-point home favorite. The Huskies broke Boise States 14 game winning streak last week as a +3.0 home underdog. Washington needs a signature win and just might get it against Ohio State as a +4.0 home dog.
Illinois -12 ½ @ Syracuse (43 o/u) Sportsbook.com , Noon ET, ESPNU: After losing a hard fought battle to Missouri in their opener Sept 1, the Illini picked up a win in week two with a 21-0 thumping of Western Illinois at home in Champaign in a non-board game.
