College Picks Week 10

There are not many good games on the SEC slieght this week so, hopefully I can improve on my record. Last week was my worst week in picking games as I was only 500.
This week should be better---

SEC- 50-18
South Carolina @ Arkansas-
This is a crucial game for both schools to get November off on a good note as they fight for bowl positioning. The Gamecocks loss to Tennessee and struggles against Vanderbilt makes this season look like the same story as the past 2 years- Gamecocks fall apart at the end of the season. The Arkansas Razorbacks have played well and look like they have positioned themselves to be dangerous in another year. Both teams need the win, but I give the ‘W’ to the Gamecocks because they need to get back on track more than the Razorbacks
WINNER- SOUTH CAROLINA
Tennessee Tech @ Georgia-
The Bulldogs get a confidence game after the embarrassing outing for the second year in a row to the Florida Gators. Georgia should win this one handily.
WINNER- GEORGIA BULLDOGS
Eastern Kentucky @ Kentucky-
A win here and the Cats have 3 tries to get to bowl eligibility for the 4th straight year.
WINNER- KENTUCKY WILDCATS
Furman @ Auburn-
Great win last week for Auburn…I did not see that coming, but with the turnaround they get a cake game before a show down with eastern foe the Georgia Bulldogs.
LSU @ Alabama-
At the beginning of the year I thought that LSU would win the Western division. However, now I think the opposite. Bama has looked like the best team in the conference and LSU has gotten by but not looked dominant. It is always close when these two teams meet, but in Saban Bowl 3, he should come out victorius.
WINNER-ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE
Vanderbilt @ Florida-
Gators clinched the East last week in their most dominant performance of the season. Now it’s a month before their next true test, the west champion. Vanderbilt has played tough this season, but the brutal schedule has caused them some trouble….
WINNER- FLORIDA GATORS
Memphis @ Tennessee-
Huge fan of the Black uni’s last Saturday and a huge fan of the BIG ‘W’ over South Carolina. Now they are in contention to finish the season 2nd in the East and reach a pretty prestigious bowl game. They need to handle their business this week against a porous Memphis Tiger team.
WINNER- TENNESSEE VOLUNTEERS
Northern Arizona @ Mississippi
You get knocked down and you get up again. That is what the Ole Miss Rebels need to do this week against N Arizona. The Rebels have superior talent and need to tune up for a showdown with a confident Volunteer team next week
WINNER- MISSISSIPPI REBELS
