You can see that spread wasn't reality though as they opened at pickem and were pushed up, although favored in the playoffs.

Anyway, spread came from offshore to gawk at during pre selection show. Review the tapes--its there.

Whoever made those spreads for ESPN is clueless, spreads I posted above are closer to reality. No way Ohio State would be favored over Bama when Tide are favored over Clemson.
