4% (144) ALABAMA -18
Alabama didn’t miss a beat in their season opener last week as they put up 38 points in an easy 38-19 win. It was 28-3 at the half before Alabama put the 2nd unit in for the 4th quarter. Note Alabama was outscored 13-3in 4th as Missouri was still playing their 1st string trying to get something going on offense. This week Alabama won’t be so gracious calling off the dogs so quickly. Texas A&M was not impressive last week only scoring as a 31.5 point favorite in a 17-12 win. Now one might say that they didn’t want to show anything for this weeks game or you can say that this Texas A&M offense isn’t that good and QB Kellen Mond is just overrated. I’ll go with the latter as last week he was just 17 of 28 for 189 yards. Alabama QB Mac Jones was 18 of 24 for 249 yards before Saban pulled the starters. I don’t see the Texas A&M defense slowing him down and I don’t see Kellen Mond having a lot of success this week against this Baja defense. My numbers have Alabama winning 41-17. TAKE ALABAMA as my 4% SEC GAME OF THE WEEK. - 4% BLOWOUT GAME OF THE WEEK

4% (125) MEMPHIS (P)
The knee-jerk reaction here is to jump on 3-0 SMU vs 1-0 Memphis in a pick the winner situation as most will look and say SMU has 3 games under their belt while Memphis only has 1 game. I don’t see that as a disadvantage and here is why. Memphis played that game back on September 5th. After that win they had to cancel two games due to Covid cases. Although it wasn’t planned with the extra time off they got to work on the things they needed to improve on from that first game. Memphis comes in here fresh while SMU will be playing their 4th game in 4 weeks. You have to be alarmed at the way the SMU defense has played thus far. SMU although they have scored a lot of points (146 points in 3 games) the defense has been bad and the competition has not been tough. SMU allowed over 400 yards of offense to Texas St in Week 1 and then in Week 2 North Texas put up over 500 yards of offense. Memphis’ offense is better than both of those two. This is a big game in Conference Play and I like the road team to get the job done. TAKE MEMPHIS as my 4% CFB BLOWOUT GAME OF THE WEEK.
