Wynn Las Vegas Sportsbook Manager on Alabama/Clemson Betting

The line is 6 1/2 and that is where it will probably stay. You will see 6 1/2 -110 and 7 Even, which is simply giving 1/2 point at less vig. I will not be wagering on the game, but I think Clemson has a very good shot here is the can keep the Alabama DEFENSE out of the end zone, something that has not been easy to do.

I think Clemson will win straight up. The best value bet is the Tigers ML.

Why not a prop bet that Clemson will win by x points?
5D has Clemson ML at +195, Clemson by 1-6 points at +425, and the odds almost double for the next tier of points.

i agree if you were going to go with clemson that +425 is really enticing. i assume this game come down to the wire again?

Only if Clemson special teams show up unlike last year's final.

I'm not necessarily the biggest believer in Clemson but I just think there's so much more value in the win margin prop bets than the ML if you were going to bet ML in the first place.

I don't think I'm going to bet on Clemson ML, gun to my head I'll take the points, but that +425 value is too good to pass up.
