\"Week
Week 11 college football odds can be compared at multiple sportsbooks on our odds page<\/figcaption><\/figure>The big news of the week, of course, is the eligibility of Heisman frontrunner, Cam Newton. The Auburn athletic director has declined to comment on Newton\u2019s status for the game against Georgia. If the Tigers don\u2019t have Newton for this game or the game against Alabama next week, the race for the national championship game gets much more interesting.<\/p>\n

To see how the Auburn\/Georgia betting line has moved, check out our\u00a0college football odds\u00a0page. You can see the opening line, current line, and how top sportsbooks are posting games. Here\u2019s a look at some of Saturday\u2019s more important match ups.<\/p>\n

Iowa (-10) at Northwestern<\/strong> \u2013 The Hawkeyes opened as 10 \u00bd point road favorites against Northwestern, and after books moved that up to 12 points, some buy back on Northwestern has moved it just below the opening number. Northwestern has beaten Iowa each of the past two seasons \u2013 and both games were at Kinnick Stadium. The Hawks had all kinds of trouble on the road against an underdog last week, and Northwestern is considerably better than Indiana.<\/p>\n

Florida (-6 \u00bd) vs. South Carolina<\/strong> \u2013 The SEC East title is up for grabs in the Swamp. Florida started as a 4 \u00bd point favorite, and then books moved that up to 7 points, and a little buy back on South Carolina has it at 6 \u00bd. The health of Marcus Lattimore is a big concern for the Gamecocks. The star freshman running back has a sprained knee. Steve Spurrier heads back to his old stomping grounds. The Gators have been playing better football since their three game losing streak.<\/p>\n

Alabama (-13) vs. Mississippi State<\/strong> \u2013 The Tide opened as 13 point favorites and the line has been pretty steady, though early in the week it moved up slightly to 14 points. The Crimson Tide\u2019s hopes for another national championship are no more. How will that affect them against an upstart Bulldogs team? Mississippi State has been one of the biggest surprises in college football this season. They almost beat Auburn at home and took care of Florida in Gainesville. Do they have another big game in them?<\/p>\n

Auburn (-6 \u00bd) vs. Georgia<\/strong> \u2013 The Tigers started as 9 \u00bd point home favorites against Georgia, but books have pulled that back to 6 or 6 \u00bd points due to the uncertainty of Cam Newton. If word comes out that Newton will be unavailable, don\u2019t be surprised to see this number drop some more. You have to imagine all the distractions have affected the Tigers. They get a Georgia team looking for a signature win \u2013 one that might save Mark Richt\u2019s job. Watch out for A.J. Green, one of the nation\u2019s top wide receivers. TCU fans everywhere are pulling for the Bulldogs.<\/p>\n

Oregon (-19 \u00bd) at California<\/strong> \u2013 The Ducks fly south to California to take on the Golden Bears. Oregon opened as a 20 \u00bd point road favorite, but that\u2019s come down to between 19 and 20 points, with most books checking in at 19 \u00bd. Cal is always a tough draw at home. Fade the Bears on the road, but at home they\u2019re usually significantly better. Oregon had some trouble with the Jake Locker-less Huskies last week. Are the Ducks starting to falter a bit or are they going to come out and throttle the Bears?<\/p>\n

Arizona (-4 \u00bd) vs. USC<\/strong> \u2013 The Wildcats started as 5 \u00bd point home favorites against USC, but now sites are listing the game at 4 \u00bd. USC has been largely disappointing this season, though they\u2019ve lost just three games and two were against Stanford and Oregon. Arizona got waxed at Stanford last week, even with Nick Foles. But like Cal, this team is always better at home. The Desert is a tough place to get a win. The road team has won straight up each of the past two seasons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
