NCAA Football Week 3 Odds Overview & Top Picks
#1 Alabama Crimson Tide at Ole Miss Rebels – 7 PM on ESPN The defending national champions will play their first SEC conference game this weekend when they go on the road to face the Ole Miss Rebels. The champs have been stellar through the opening 2 weeks, winning both games and racking up the points, albeit against teams you would certainly expect them to beat. The Rebels picked up a bit of a surprise win in Week 1, beating Texas Tech by 20 points in a game where they were very slight favorites. They followed that up with a big win over lesser foes last weekend. Alabama is a 21 ½ point favorite here, but do not tend to cover on the road, going 1-3-1 in their last 5. They are just 2-6 ATS in their last 8 visits to Mississippi. Perhaps taking the Rebels to cover may be the bet here.Tee Higgins picks up his first-career ACC Receiver of the Week and the first Tigers’ receiver to claim the honor since Mike Williams in November 2016 #ALLIN 🐅 pic.twitter.com/LQw4txMsY5

Georgia Southern Eagles at #2 Clemson Tigers – 3:30 PM on ESPN2
The Tigers had their first scare of the season last week, holding on to win a road game versus the Texas A&M Aggies. It was never going to be an easy road game, but it was also still a whole lot closer than most people expected. They will be looking to play a whole lot better as a 35-point favorite over unbeaten Georgia Southern this week in what should be a total mismatch. The Eagles are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games, but I think they are in for a beating here.Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders at #3 Georgia Bulldogs – 7:15 PM on ESPN2
The first big challenge of the season for the Georgia Bulldogs came last weekend when they went on the road to face the South Carolina Gamecocks, the team widely tipped to be the biggest challenger to the Dawgs in the SEC East.
