SEC Week 13 Previews and Picks ATS.
Updated: Nov 24, 2023
One of my favorite weeks is here. It's rivalry week in the SEC. You have games like Texas A&M vs LSU, Georgia vs Georgia Tech, and the best rivalry in all of college football - The Iron Bowl. Let's get into the previews and best bets for one last time in the 2023 regular season.
Kentucky at #10 Louisville
Game Information:
Location: L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium
Channel: ABC
Kentucky vs Louisville Odds:
Spread: Louisville -7.5 (-110), Kentucky +7.5 (-110)
O/U: 49.5 (-110)
ML: Louisville -278, Kentucky +225
Season Performances:
Season Records: Louisville (10-1), Kentucky (6-5)
ATS: Louisville (6-5), Kentucky (4-6)
O/U: Louisville (5-5-1), Kentucky (7-4)
Home/Away: Louisville (6-0 H), Kentucky (2-2 A)
Team Streak: Louisville (W4), Kentucky (L2)
What To Bet:
Kentucky is currently on a four-game win streak in this series winning each by double digits. Louisville is the better team but 7.5 points is too many that Kentucky has dominated in recent history.
Best Bet:
Kentucky +7.5
Texas A&M at #14 LSU
Game Information:
Location: Tiger Stadium
Channel: ESPN
Texas A&M vs LSU Odds:
Spread: LSU -10.5 (-110), Texas A&M +10.5 (-110)
O/U: 66.5 (-110)
ML: LSU -400, Texas A&M +310
Season Performances:

Home/Away: LSU (6-0), Texas A&M (0-3 A)
Team Streak: LSU (W2), Texas A&M (L1)
What to Bet:
Except last week the over has hit in every LSU game this year. Even last week it was only 5 points away. Give me the over.
Best Bet:
Over 66.5
#8 Alabama at Auburn
Game Information:
Location: Jordan-Hare Stadium
Channel: CBS
Alabama vs Auburn Odds:
Spread: Alabama -13.5 (-110), Auburn +13.5 (-110)
O/U: 47.5 (-110)
ML: Alabama -550, Auburn +400
Season Performances:
Season Records: Alabama (10-1), Auburn (6-5)
ATS: Alabama (8-3), Auburn (5-6)
O/U: Alabama (8-2-1), Auburn (4-6-1)
Home/Away: Alabama (4-0 A), Auburn (3-3 H)
Team Streak: Alabama (W9), Auburn (L1)
What to Bet:
I'm gonna keep it honest. I could see Alabama winning by 30 or Auburn pulling the outright upset. I see Auburn struggling to move the ball. The Auburn TT sits at 16.5 and I see them struggling to reach that.
Best Bet:
Auburn TT Under 16.5
Vanderbilt at #21 Tennessee
Game Information:
Location: Neyland Stadium
Channel: SEC Network
Vanderbilt vs Tennessee Odds:
Spread: Tennessee -27.5 (-110), Vanderbilt +27.5 (-110)
O/U: 56.5 (-110)
ML: Tennessee -4500, Vanderbilt +1600
Season Performances:
Season Records: Tennessee (7-4), Vanderbilt (2-9)
ATS: Tennessee (6-5), Vanderbilt (1-10)
O/U: Tennessee (5-5-1), Vanderbilt (7-3-1)
Home/Away: Tennessee (5-1), Vanderbilt (0-5)
Team Streak: Tennessee (L2), Vanderbilt (L9)
What to Bet:
I fully expect Tennessee to dominate Vanderbilt this week. However, 27.5 is way too big of a spread for me to bet on. Instead, I will take the over in this game of 56.5. I think Tennessee can come close to hitting this number by itself.
Best Bet:
Over 56.5
#5 Florida State at Florida
Game Information:
Location: Ben Hill Griffin Stadium
Channel: ESPN
Florida St vs Florida Odds:
Spread: FSU -6.5 (-110), UF +6.5 (-110)
O/U: 49.5 (-110)
ML: FSU -245, Florida +198
Season Performances:
Season Records: FSU (11-0), UF (5-6)
ATS: FSU (6-5), UF (4-7)
O/U: FSU (7-4), UF (7-3-1)
Home/Away: FSU (4-0 A), UF (4-1 H)
Team Streak: FSU (10W), UF (L4)
What To Bet:
FSU hasn't won in Gainesville since 2017. Even if FSU wins this game it will be less than a touchdown score.
Best Bet:
Florida +6.5
#24 Clemson at South Carolina
Game Information:
Location: Williams-Brice Stadium

Clemson vs South Carolina Odds:
Spread: Clemson -7.5 (-110), South Carolina +7.5 (-110)
O/U: 49.5 (-110)
ML: Clemson -295, South Carolina +235
Season Performances:
Season Records: Clemson (7-4), South Carolina (5-6)
ATS: Clemson (5-6), South Carolina (6-5)
O/U: Clemson (5-6), South Carolina (5-6)
Home/Away: Clemson (1-3), South Carolina (5-1)
Team Streak: Clemson (W3), South Carolina (W3)
What To Bet:
South Carolina getting 7.5 at home? That's an easy pick for me. I'll take the homedog and the points. I might even play this on the ML.
Best Bet:
South Carolina +7.5
#1 Georgia at Georgia Tech
Game Information:
Location: Bobby Dodd Stadium
Channel: ABC
Georgia vs Georgia Tech Odds:
Spread: Georgia -24.5 (-110), Georgia Tech +24.5 (-110)
O/U: 60.5 (-110)
ML: Georgia -3500, Georgia Tech +1280
Season Performances:
Season Records: Georgia (11-0), Georgia Tech (6-5)
ATS: Georgia (5-6), Georgia Tech (6-5)
O/U: Georgia (6-5), Georgia Tech (9-2)
Home/Away: Georgia (3-0 A), Georgia Tech (3-2 H)
Team Streak: Georgia (W10), Georgia Tech (W1)
What To Bet:
The over has hit nine times in Georgia Tech's eleven games. That's the best way to attack this game as Georgia will most likely score at will and Georgia Tech will be able to make its own plays. Take the over.
Best Bet:
Over 60.5
These are my Week 13 picks and my final of the regular season. It's been a fun ride and hope to see you back here during the conference championship week and the playoff games.
