Georgia at Alabama· Sat, Oct 10 · 7:30 PM ET
Player pick · Passing yards
Keelon Russell under 231.5 passing yards
-114
FanDuel

If you believe the weather reports, and that is what they are for now, reports, the passing numbers take the hit first. A 231.5 line for Keelon Russell was likely set with a dry night in mind. At -114 you pay a little juice, but it fits the same read as the under on the game total.

Player pick · Rushing yards
Nate Frazier over 49.5 rushing yards
-114
FanDuel

Nate Frazier over 49.5 rushing yards at -114 implies about 53 percent. If the weather that SEC officials are tracking actually materializes, carries should drift toward the ground game in a game the market already sees as close, so I lean slightly over at around 56 percent. I would not lean on any small sample of his recent games here, and the thin margin is exactly why it stays a lean.

South Carolina at Florida· Sat, Oct 10 · 12:45 PM ET
Player pick · Rushing yards
LaNorris Sellers over 47.5 rushing yards
-114
FanDuel

Every Florida headline this week is about one problem: slowing LaNorris Sellers, and when an entire defensive game plan is built around containing a quarterback, it tells you where the stress point is. South Carolina is a 12.5-point underdog at 2-3, which means Sellers will likely have to create with his legs to keep pace, both on designed runs and when the pocket breaks down. I will take him over 47.5 rushing yards at -114, because the matchup forces the ball into his hands.

Final: LaNorris Sellers: 20 yds

Texas at Oklahoma· Sat, Oct 10 · 3:30 PM ET
Player pick · Passing yards
John Mateer over 199.5 passing yards
-111
DraftKings

Finebaum calls Mateer a complete bust and the whole internet nods along, which is usually when a number gets shaded too low. Oklahoma is a touchdown-plus dog against the No. 1 team, so the game script should have him throwing a lot more than he'd like. I'm taking the over on 199.5 because the crowd already buried him.

Final: John Mateer: 155 yds
