Hold the Mayo Week 10: is the line or the CFP rankings wrong?

[Kyle Miller]

Last week I asked: favorites or underdogs? Favorites, mostly. Four of the five covered. The only one that didn't was Oklahoma, and South Carolina didn't just cover +5.5, they walloped.

The board's big miss was Texas. 80% of you took Mississippi State and the 21.5 points, and Texas won by 28. I laid the points with Texas, so I'll take that one. Where the board was right, it was very right: 93% had Missouri -10.5 at Arkansas, and Missouri won by 24.

Congrats to @PaulieD, who went 5-0. That's the first perfect board of Hold the Mayo, and PaulieD's second jar this season after Week 5. Seven more of you went 4-1. Full Week 9 results can be seen here.

Week 10 is open, and it's a big one. Eight SEC games against the spread, best record Holds the Mayo, ties go to whoever picked first:

• #7 Texas (-3.5) at #18 Missouri, 11:00 AM CT
• Arkansas at Auburn (-10.5), 11:45 AM CT
• Texas A&M at #21 South Carolina (-7.5), 2:00 PM CT 
• #5 Alabama at #14 LSU (-5.5), 2:30 PM CT
• Vanderbilt at Mississippi State (-3.5), 3:15 PM CT
• #6 Kentucky at #13 Tennessee (-6.5), 5:15 PM CT
• #2 Georgia (-3.5) at #10 Ole Miss, 6:30 PM CT
• Oklahoma at #24 Florida (-6.5), 6:45 PM CT

The pick for each game locks at its own kickoff, and you can change your picks any time before then without losing your place in line. Texas kicks at 11, so get that one in before you sit down for it.

Here's what I keep staring at: the committee and the line disagree. #6 Kentucky is a 6.5-point underdog at #13 Tennessee. #5 Alabama is getting 5.5 at #14 LSU. And #2 Georgia is only laying 3.5 at #10 Ole Miss. So who's wrong, the committee or the line?
