No. 16 Texas A&M is on the road against No. 8 Notre Dame, looking to avenge a previous season loss. In league play, No. X Georgia will face its first major challenge against No. 15 Tennessee, while the evening features No. 3 LSU taking on Florida, a must-win for the Tigers.

Here is a breakdown of early odds for these pivotal games as the season heats up.
