    harlee, great thought process there. So if Nebraska can hold Texas to 12 points Alabam can hold them to 0.

      It was a response to Pavyracer's comment. That Texas could not out score bama.

          I was on Texas but I think I have to switch sides after seeing this. That Bama girl is smoking.

            it doesnt matter how big of a pro you are
            no one will hit 65 % + on nba, nfl spreads over hundreds of plays

                100 plays is still low. Can be done easy. 1000 plays I agree with you.

                  You have a lot to learn. Listen to what he is telling you. No one hits 65% over the long term.

                      Sharps are DEFINITELY on Texas. I totally disagree with them, but that is besides the point.

                      Reverse Line Moves (RLM) always point to sharp money. Fact that 67% are on Bama and yet line has dropped two points is all you need to know to figure out who sharps are on.

                          I have never thought of myself as a sharp por se, but I always like being on the same side as they are. At the same time, it's not like I never play the square side if I have a strong enough opinion on them, and that is the case with Alabama here. And I do quite OK for myself, so I guess that makes me a hybrid.

                            I'm neither sharp or square but I like to be on the winning side of the bet.

                                      The last couple national championships have been far from close with the exception of the USC-Texas game.

                                      Therefore, if you like Texas I would ditch the points and go for the ML. Either Texas wins outright or they get blown out.

                                          The Line has been pushed down big time, but I see what everyone else saw that 66% of the public is on Alabama

                                            The only thing wrong with this logic is that it does not matter how many people are on a side it matters where the money is going. A $100 dollar bettor is not worth the same as a $10,000 bettor. That 66% means nothing.

                                              First of all this is a great game for college football. Two powerhouse programs in the National championship at the Rose Bowl. Texas is in the exact same position they were against USC and no one gave them a chance. PEOPLE SAY VINCE YOUNG VINCE YOUNG but vince young wasnt vince young until that game. Colt will show up HUGE and texas wins going away. ALL over the over too. TEXAS WITH THE POINTS FOR EVERYTHING I GOT. Before the Conference championship games the experts lined up bama vs texas and had TEXAS as the favorites. BAMA beats the hell out of florida and they are on top of the world, Texas struggles and knows who lucky they are to be in this game. Mcelroy had a huge game against florida after "managing" the offense at best all year long. Not only does Texas cover but they win, no way the horns will let this oppurtunity slip and bama has been partying hard in LA because everyone in the country has them to win. HOOKEM and GL to all

                                                Bama does not match up well with Texas. Yes, they have a great defense but it's geared towards stopping the run. They will not get the pass rush with JUST the down lineman like Nebraska and OU did. The strength of those defensive lines was the pass rush. They could drop 7 and that gave Colt trouble when they could still get pressure on him.

                                                Alabama is going to have to blitz LB's to get pressure and this will open up the middle of the field for McCoy. He is deadly in the short passing game and that is going to hurt Alabama.

                                                Also, Texas has the #1 rushing defense in the country and Alabama is a running team. Texas will sell out to force McElroy to beat them and I'm not sure that kid is ready for this kind of spotlight yet. We'll see...Texas has a great secondary so there will be some interesting one on one matchups here.

                                                I think Alabama is a great great team but I don't think they matchup well here. Texas wins by 10.

                                                            That's exactly how you know that sharps are on Texas here. The money bet by 33% of the bettors (sharps) far outweighs the money bet by 67% of the bettors (squares).

                                                            Therefore, I would not say that the "66% means nothing", as I think knowing that percentage makes it easy to figure out where the smart money is.

                                                            Despite all of this, my stupid money is with the squares.

                                                              everywhere else it opened at -5


                                                              now its pretty much stuck at -4
