COLUMBIA, S.C. — As Saturday’s Week 9 college football odds lock into place, the board runs through key corridors: Alabama–South Carolina sits just shy of 14 here in Columbia, Texas–Mississippi State is glued to seven in Starkville, and Texas A&M–LSU edges toward three in Baton Rouge.
Totals have tightened on pace swings and backdoor risk—Syracuse–Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Ole Miss–Oklahoma in Norman—while prime time spotlights Wisconsin–Oregon in Eugene and Michigan–Michigan State in East Lansing. It’s a numbers day, not a narratives day: find flat 7s, respect 3/7/10/14, and shop every half-point before limits do the talking.
