Friday Night Lines: SEC odds shift in key matchups

By Chris Marler

Oddsmakers have updated the betting lines for every SEC game this weekend. There’s been plenty of shifting overall, but only a handful of games saw major changes. Out of the 12 matchups, just one stayed exactly the same.

The biggest line shifts from early week to Friday came in the weekend’s marquee matchups. Ole Miss-Kentucky, Michigan-Oklahoma, and Arizona State-Mississippi State each moved at least two points. The largest being in Starkville, where viral clips and sound bites from Arizona State make it clear the Sun Devils have no idea what awaits them at Davis Wade Stadium.
