        Line is about right, just a very slight lean to MSU

            yeah, it would certainly take them playing the perfect game of the decade, but i like how they much up with bama. very physical team and well coached.

              Even as an undefeated team, Miss St. is an untested team. I was thinking of betting them last week against Mid Tenn and couldn't just based on watching their film and looking at their game stats. They aren't dominating teams they should be (except for the 2h of last game of course).

              That said, 24 pts is a lot and it's not like Alabama needs to leave their foot on the gas to let everyone know that they are the best college foots team in the country. Everyone already knows that.

                    That is a huge line. Miss. St. isn't that bad. I would have put that at 14. I know Alabama has been destroying everyone they are playing but this game could be closer than this line is.

                      21 but the line is -24 Plus the fact that Alabama is 1-3 ATS at home Think I will take the points

                        Those of you thinking Miss St hangs in this one, try watching a game sometime. They won't score over 10 points on Bama at home.

                              Book it at 14 and see how many takers you get on Miss. St.

                                    Seems way to high and you know what I bet you Bama covers this.
                                    I'm going Bama -24 on Saturday. Just when you think they wont cover, this team will.

                                      Mississippi State doesn't have the personnel to go punch for punch in the trenches like LSU, nor the speed to draw their refrigerator sized people into space like Auburn did a couple years back. With a talent disparity so large, Saban is going to play conservative and keep Miss st from even having a puncher's chance at keeping the score respectable. It'll be 24-3 at half and Alabama wins by 30+.

                                        Alabama is just so Dominating to the point,they make the teams they are playing look less impressive,even the lower level teams in the SEC are still pretty good teams!Miss St is a good Team and BAMA will Beat them down too,making them look less impressive also!Bama wins 41- 10.Nobody's gonna beat Alabama this year!Take it to the Bank$$$$

                                          on my rotation sheet i penciled in -21 1/2 over the weekend

                                          so... it seems a bit high to me

                                            Its a trap. Some of these lines seem inflated as heck, sort of like the Iowa State this last weekend. They got smoked.

                                            Line for Wildcats vs Sooners was also pretty high a few weeks back and that turned out well for the double-digit dog.

                                                  Can Mississippi St score more than 14 points?
                                                  I thought Tennessee could, but they could not.
                                                  Now Miss St is playing this amazing defense.

                                                  Can any team in the SEC score more than 14 points on Bama? Texas A&M will have a higher total than 14 I would imagine.

                                                    being a bulldog fan and seeing all games this year think bama can name the score here. bulldogs will not be able to stop bama run game between the tackles or outside either one. tenn put up over 200 yards rushing and were playing from behind. if not for the fumble in 3rd quarter by tenn they would have won game.

                                                        line may be correct but you have to figure in the fact that Alabama plays LSU next week. Major look ahead potential IMO

                                                          LSU wil be at least +7 at home vs Alabama

                                                            I took +24.5. I had Bama - 20 last week as my top play because Tenn gives up a lot of big plays on defense. I love a nicked up South Carolina team to cover the -14 against them this week too. But in this one I see Bama trying to play conservative mistake free ball and try to keep the clock moving. MSU has enough offense to play a little field position and stay within 24 and a hook maybe a 27-10 type of game.

                                                              Could be a look ahead spot for bama. They have LSU on deck.
