    It is not impossible. IF Alabama beats MSU, Ole Miss beats MSU and Auburn beats Alabama, they will all have two losses assuming they win their other games. Yes that is a lot, but none of the pieces are far fetched.

          I think Auburn because given the scenario I mentioned above, them and Ole Miss would be 2-1 vs. the other tied teams while Bama and MSU would be 1-2, and Auburn beat Miss head-to-head.

              Remember that was only for the scenario I mentioned. Not sure if there are other combinations that could result in 4-way tie.

Of course it would depend how they lose next week, whether it's close or a blowout.
                Bama barely escaped against Arkansas too.

                  Looks like a solid 7 is the 'opener'

                  Sammy is passing ... may bet really small just for action/interest

                    Books know that players want to pound Bama at -6.5, so we may never even see it get there.

                    Everyone on SBR likes Bama. If I can get +7.5 on MSU, I'm taking it. I like you guys, but fading the forum when they're all on the same team is hitting at about a 95% clip.

                    You wanna talk +ev, look no further.

                      you need to add 'on the road' to that statement.
                      At home I think he has the highest Qb rating in the country. Or Top 3 at worst.

                        Lay the pts or take St on the ML. Reasoning is simple. If the game plays out like it should Bama will beat miss st handily. If not, most likely Alabama will not win a close game at home against them. Alabama usually does not win close games at home.

                          It will be-

                          1. 1 loss or less SEC champ
                          2. Fsu
                          3. 1 loss PAC 12 champ
                          4. 1 loss sec team

                          1 loss big 12 champ
                          Ohio state

                          After that who knows.
                          Not even close. If Florida State wins out they are #1. Oregon, who is better than any SEC team should be #2. The SEC Champ (if they have lost only one game) should be #3. Baylor will be #4. Conference champions pull a lot more weight than some dumb arse idiots who actually believe that the SEC is that good. They are NOT. It does not matter if the SEC Champ is #2 and Oregon #3. They will play each other in the Rose Bowl, a place where Oregon has already defeated UCLA 42-30. This time, Oregon will have the "home field" advantage. The SEC gets one team, and one team only in the Playoffs.

                            This is the beauty of playing in Vegas, and not one of those rip off books off shore. I took 'Bama -6.5 at the Wynn, and took Miss. State +7.5 at the old LV. I do not mind middling 7 at all. You are also spot on about fading this forum. When they all agree, they are just terrible. You really have to wonder just how many people in here actually place wagers because they have allegedly wagered and lost so much.

                                Maybe someone can answer this for me. Now that Miss St. is at +8.5, does anyone know what the largest underdog spread for a number 1 ranked team is of all time?

                                        So I found that Norte Dame was #1 and got +8.5 points against Alabama in 2012. Are there any other games that were higher that the #1 ranked team was an underdog?

                                              There should be 3 SEC teams in the final 4

                                              Oregon should be put in as a consolation for blowing their load during the stretch the last few years, but they won't beat an SEC defense

                                              This year's Florida State team and TCU is a joke. Although I am sure Florida will eliminate Florida State from contention if Miami doesn't

                                                  Yeah, but nick is notorious for letting off the gas second half cause they are usually skull FUKKING teams. One of my biggest wagers was when he played at col state and the col head coach was a former coordinator under Saban. Col st covered easily. So I think these numbers don't pertain to the game against msu.

                                                      I took Bama ML and Miss St +8. Hoping to cash both or at least split.

                                                        Right, he is a very conservative coach. He gets the big lead then runs it up the middle the second half so he grinds the clock to avoid injuries and also he is not going to run anything for future opponents to utilize against him.

                                                          Good points fellas. Still not 100% sure what to do here.

                                                          Blindly fading the forum when it's this lopsided is just way too good of a bet. Seriously, I can't remember the last time they actually won one.

                                                          But Bama is start to finish 10 points better than MSU at home at least.

                                                          Tick tick tick......

                                                                Before Tommie Frazier and Osborne got it right they were a high double digit dog to Charlie ward in the orange bowl as the nations' number one. A few years ago manti teo's secret love team was 10.5 point dog to bama in national championship game. Should have been a 30.5 point line.

                                                                      Then just bet Alabama ML only. If you want a shot at 2x and are that confident, bet the ML 2x. I think Bama wins too but will most likely pass because I don't lay those kinds of odds. But I wouldn't criticize anyone doing so with Bama ML here.
