Clemson/Alabama total keeps dropping down to 57.5

Bama and OU total started at 78  went up to 82..  whoever took over late got screwed..

So maybe this is an indicator to take the over

I always liked the over..  if you can get 57  that is a good number.. 

I heard this morning the turf is wet. Their using fans to dry it up apparently. That could impact the Over.

It rained all weekend there, that field is known for having bad conditions when it rains. Will it be better by gametime? Probably not as good as if it didn’t rain all weekend there.

2 great defensive teams?  LOL both secondarys are terrible - Clemson's front is better but Bama has the best offense they've had ever and can score at will.  Plus Bama's special teams are way better than Clemson's and I wouldn't be surprised if there was kick or punt return for a TD. Over 57.

My ramblings and thoughts about this game.

The opening line opened at 59 or 59.5. That in itself, says something. This being the last game, which is considered the "super bowl" for college football, the odds makers know what they are doing. The tragic part is, it won't go over by much. I expect the final score to be some combination of 60 or 61. Just look at that Mizzou game. The O/U for that was 72.5 and yet it landed on 71 with the bonehead play calling by the Mizzou coach for their demise. With all this taken into consideration, there's no f*ckin way that I'm taking the under. If the odds makers wanted it to be an under, they would have set it in the mid 40's. With everything above taken into consideration, it's either over or no play on the total. Luckily for the last minute over takers, this line has moved lower into their favor.

As for the spread, the opening spread was 6.5. As stated before, the odds makers know what they are doing. This game will come down to a last minute drive that will cause the margin of victory to be between 5 to 6 points. Also, if you're thinking of taking the live in game odds, I'm thinking that the odds makers are aware of this and thus the highest lead that any team will have will be no more than 10 points. Last thing the odds makers want is for Bama to be up 3 td's, everybody slams the Clemson live spread, Clemson comes back in the 2nd half losing by 6 or less.

Overall, I commend the odds makers with these lines because everybody is thinking critically and can see ALL scenarios developing. They WILL get their 10% and more tonight because I'm sure that there is almost equal action on both sides. 

As usual, bet sensibly and BOL in whatever you decide to play... 

Whoaaaa......  But I was wrong about the margin of victory..
