3. Ole Miss at Auburn

Both Ole Miss and Auburn come into this game with a chance to win the SEC West. Ole Miss needs to win out and have Alabama lose another game. Auburn just needs to keep winning and everything will take care of itself.

However, that’s easier said than done with the Tigers schedule. Auburn has looked better in recent weeks and much of what happens will depend on what we see from Bo Nix.

Nix is squaring off against Heisman trophy contender Matt Corral who ran the ball 30 times in a win over Tennessee and threw a late touchdown pass to get Ole Miss past Arkansas.

I don’t think Ole Miss is going to reach the SEC title game, but the Rebels will beat Auburn on Saturday.

2. Florida vs Georgia

There is only one ranked team in this matchup but it’s still one of the biggest games in Week 9 of the college football season.

Florida has three losses but has had some positive moments such as nearly beating Alabama. Both Emory Jones and Anthony Richardson have had their ups and downs and both could play against the Bulldogs Saturday.

Georgia has played two quarterbacks too but that’s been due to an injury to JT Daniels and it hasn’t really mattered. Georgia is the best team in college football and the Bulldogs will play like it Saturday in Jacksonville.
