    Tennessee (+20.5) against Alabama?!...Which way are you leaning?!

    Man, dems lots of points!...Tennessee is not that bad of a team and they are always tough in Knoxville!...Alabama is playing their second consecutive road game....My gut feeling is take the Vols and the points!...I can see the Crimson Tide winning this something like 31 - 21....Any thoughts or comments from my fellow degenerates?!

    IF I was playing this game, I would agree with you and go the way of Tennessee.

    UT seems to always play Bama tough. I think it's too many points but I'd get 21 for sure. UT 1st half is probably the better play. UT is a better 1st half team than 2nd half.

    They're not winning for sure... what're they, 0-12 against ranked teams under their head coach? Yea... they'll win against a Bama team that's just steamrolling everyone

    Similar to the 41-10 score, Bama won't let a team score more than 2 TD's in a game at least until the NCG if not then too and I can't see this UT D stopping this run game.

    Don't be silly now.

    Tide defense giving up 6.8 ppg last 13 lined games

    Tenn defense looking for volunteers after surrendering 1,558 yards last three games

    Bama running backs licking their chops.

    Vols 0-7 Home pup

    Nothing has changed here, Tide rolls

    ^^...good points on both sides of the argument but I'm still taking the points....this spread is way too high for a team that I think will come out ready to play...You also have to factor in that Vols head coach Derrick Dooley is on the proverbial "hot seat" and needs a win badly....or at least keep the game competitive and respectable....another factor is that Tennessee will be far and away the best and most well balanced offense Alabama has seen this year...The Vols are ranked #22 in the nation in passing with 299 yds per game and #43 in the country in rushing with 183 yds per game....Like I said, I predict a 31 - 21 type of victory for the crimson tide....I think worst case scenario would be a classic back door cover!....speaking of which, also keep in mind Alabama is just 3-3 ATS this year, so it's not like they are a lock to cover by any stretch of the imagination!..

    Don't know about anything else, but the tide will roll up some yardage on the ground. Over 200yds no problem.

    ^^ Some good points also.

    The biggest problem is that Vol defense. They are horrible.

    Hate to lay the wood on the road in SEC, but.

    Bama defense is a beast and Vols defense are cupcakes. Not sure how Vols can score here without turnovers, trick plays, special teams. Can it happen ? Sure, but unlikely.

    When you make this bet, ask yourself if Tenn. will be able to stop Alabama from scoring 40 + points? Will the Vols score more than a TD?

    I'm at the very early stages of looking at these games, but I see the Tide here by 30+. Good luck with your pick.

    Saban doesn't really try to run up the score and Dooley used to be on his staff. With Bray slinging it around a back door cover could be in play.

    I went with bama, but may buy back if it gets a little over 21 (24 or so?)
