    Espn: 73% of point spread bets & 88% of ML in Vegas are on Alabama

    http://www.espn.com/chalk/story/_/id...l-championship


    Vegas is either going to release an economic stimulus package tomorrow or this will be a burial the likes we haven’t seen in quite some time

    If this is the case, why did the line open at -4.5 then move to -3.5??

    Because of big ballers like BigBusiness dropping massive bets down on Georgia

    Rooting for Georgia regardless of the percentages.

    They have offense.... they have defense.... kicking game is good.

    Like a well oiled machine.

    Georgia's QB will have to be great to win. Bama will look to take the rush game completely away. If they can stay out of obvious passing downs they are in good shape. If not, Tide dline will maul that kid. I would like to see Saban lose but that defensive front is fukin great.

    I haven't won a football bet in the last 2 weeks. The decline is REAL. Y'all would not believe the bad beats I've had? Totally WTF kind of beats. The one game I should have won, my bet didn't confirm. How's that for a kick in the nuts. I'm passing on this game because I've gotten my brain kicked in but I really think Bama is going to blow the Dawgs out, so UGA has to be the play. Hell, if I put a $1 on Bama, they are fukked.

    Airbets do not affect lines.

    "Last week, they wouldn't stop betting Clemson," said Ed Salmons, assistant manager at the Westgate SuperBook. "This week, it's all Alabama."

    You have been losing your arse and making up excuses for your losses all season long. Why should this week be any different? The truth of the matter is that you are just a terrible 'Capper.

    Final score
    17-13


    Georgia qbs best skill is deep ball. In a tight low scoring game I'd rather have the points. Where it may only take one explosive deep pass to get it done.






    Per PFF College data, Fromm is the best deep ball thrower – defined as passes that travel 20-plus yards downfield – in the country. His passer rating on those attempts (135.4) is higher than even Mayfield’s (134.8), who is widely considered the most deadly bomb tosser in the FBS. Fromm’s completion rate on those attempts (59.1) is fourth nationally with Mayfield ranking first.

    Georgia cannot run the ball against Alabama. Bama wins easily. 21-10 until Georgia sneaks in a backdoor push with a late score. 21-17 final.

    And the spread still at 3.5

    books control the line... hoping for some Georgia money

    If the SEC had a chance to view the books activity

    they would be in prison for 10-20 years

    unreal

    This is the very reason you should bet ML's on ALL tight spread, huge games like this one.........

    Just remember this: ATS lines are the bread&butter of the industry.........
