    Big Ego and Big Win in Texas: Longhorns -3
    Big Ego and Big Win in Texas
    Who would have thought that a Week 10 matchup between Vanderbilt and Texas would be one of the SEC games to circle? Both teams have one conference loss, so the loser is likely out of contention to play in the SEC title game.
    Vanderbilt (#9) @ Texas (#20)​ -3 (-110)

    Reading material before the tailgate bbq and the game:

    Texas has won 21 of its last 23 games as a home favorite. During the same stretch, Vanderbilt is 6-11 as the road favorite. The Longhorns have covered against the NCAA football betting lines 59% of the time when favored at home since the start of the 2022 season.

    There have been some underwhelming efforts by Texas this season. This is the first real test for the Longhorns at home, and the No. 3-rated defense in the SEC could make life difficult for Vanderbilt’s dynamic quarterback Diego Pavia and the Commodores. Take the Longhorns to deliver when making college football betting picks.

      Yeah, Texas at home usually brings the heat. Vandy’s defense might keep it close early, but I can see the Longhorns pulling away late—solid call on backing Texas here.

        There’s an “eye” in WIN
        Not too long ago, a Penn State-Ohio State matchup would have national implications. Thanks to the free fall by the Nittany Lions, it is just another game on the Week 10 schedule.
        Penn State @ Ohio State (#1)​ -18 (-110)

          Why is Texas only -3 vs Vanderbilt? If this game was season opener, the line would have been -27.5.

            Manning isn’t playing like the Heisman front runner as many people had hoped for.

              Arch showed up for the 1H.
              I could have done without that Vandy TD at the end of the half, but the Longhorns are still in good shape.

                Ouch. Brutal 4Q. Better than a loss at least
