Ok guys I really like this play for the following reasons:
1. It's going to be 100 degrees in Alabama on Saturday. But guess what it's going to be 110 degrees in Alamogordo. You think Alabama has the advantage but New Mexico is hotter than Alabama and the kids practice all summer in the heat. Last week Bama played in Atlanta in a stadium with air conditioning to 70 degrees and no sun or humidity.
2. Nick Saban likes to use these games as kicking practice for his field goal kickers so you will see a lot of field goals kicks instead of touchdowns.
3. Alabama very rarely scores 56 points or more. They like to chew the clock. Even if New Mexico doesn't score you cash the ticket with a 54-0 score.
4. New Mexico kids have pride. Covering the number is their Superbowl.
5. Alabama could play the scrubs in the 4th quarter. Scrubs don't score points and they let a backdoor cover. Most scrubs are not on scholarship and their parents bet these games to pay for tuition.
Let's do this. New Mexico St +55.5 -110.
