Delusional Alabamans

Question

Thinking they are untouchable and will win every game by 30+. Not so fast my friends. They are in for a rude awakening come Saturday night. Alabama has beaten up on cupcakes and now travel to a playoff contender in a rowdy atmosphere. This one will be a dogfight decided by single digits. Crazy to lay 14.5 pts on the road against a top 5 team I don't care how great you think they might be.

LSU +14.5 Give it to me for my largest play of the season thus far.

Bama wins by a small margin and LSU backers cash in.

I can definitely see the &#x2B;14.5&#xA;My question is, what do you think the line would be if the game was in Alabama?

If we played "cupcakes" then why are we ranked #1 by the playoff committee who said we had the best resume? Undefeated UCF is ranked where? They DID play cupcake teams, that is why they are ranked behind a two loss Florida.

Alabama is leading the SEC in sacks, and our secondary is elite. and Burrow has not thrown a TD in three games..

Tua will have a record setting night... Bama wins by at least 30

You have literally played nobody that could be considered good. Some average teams like Mizzou, A&amp;M, and Ole Miss. Other than that just complete scrubs. Think the team with best record you;ve played is 5-3 lol. I am not denying Alabama is a great team and likely to win a championship but 14.5 on the road against a very good LSU team is asburd when you havent even been tested against real competition.

&#xA; &#xA;IMO - This is the most complete Alabama team that we&#x27;ve seen.  Would not be surprised to see Alabama cover the 14.  Saban had 2 weeks to prepare.  Tua will be ready...the other players follow suite.  The Alabama machine is remarkable.

Tappy · Answer

You put WAY too much logic into thinking that WHO a team plays determines how good they are, if Clemson and Alabama both played the same team under the same circumstances, their would be a different outcome every time because it is how you play week in and week out consistently against your opponents. Alabama has blown everyone out they have played because they are that good. LSU will be no different, this is one of the best teams in the history of the game.

Election committee, Espn, heavy bias with SEC teams! Alabama opponents; Louisville, Arkansas State, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Citadel, blah, blah,blah... I would hope their stats with sacks, interceptions would be great!! Probably softest schedule in FBS!! I guess this weekend will be the gauge of who Alabama is. Good luck with your team man!Cheers!!

Tappy · Answer

I hope you do not use that logic when placing wagers

SilkyJohnson11 · Answer

These replies make me even more confident. Might have to through money management out the window for this one.

MushKing · Answer

I&#x27;m not an Alabama fan, but this argument gets used every year.Bama will destroy good SEC teams like A&amp;M, Mississippi State, Tennessee, etc., and people say "those teams simply aren&#x27;t very good if they lose to Bama by 30&#x2B;"....Maybe it&#x27;s that Bama is just that good instead of all the teams on their schedule being "cupcakes"?I would take Bama -10 against any top team in the country right now except Clemson, with Bama being the road team.

benhogan76 · Answer

Why do you think line is that high?  Do you really think a big majority will be on Bama-13.5 on road against now 3rd ranked team?

Tappy · Answer

Exactly, it is like a broken record...

Tappy · Answer

Yeah, logic obviously escapes you

Super_Chicken · Answer

Some people will try anything to convince themselves that Bama (and the entire SEC) is not that good.  This week after Bama destroys LSU those people will say "LSU sucks, their coach is a moron, they have no offense, etc."

Everyone keeps saying "this bama team is different" and it has certainly looked that way so far this season.  We will find out for sure Saturday night.  Love the discussion and can see both sides of the argument.  IF anything can rattle Tua, it&#x27;s probably death valley at night in a top 5 matchup.  I don&#x27;t think it will happen but we will see.  Will not be wagering on this game as I am a huge Bama fan and want to enjoy one of the best environments in college football without the thought of winning or losing $$$ in the back of my mind.  Roll Tide.

I&#x27;m and Auburn fan and I hate Bama...that said, Bama to the pay window...locally its -15 1/2... They are too strong when they want to be...Lsu gonna score maybe 17....Hopefully Bama doesnt let up.. Bama can only cost itself the game.... TT has been the best bet all year...heres one for ya....if there is a prop bet for Tua throwing an interception, I&#x27;m taking it...

Tappy · Answer

Yup! Happens EVERY year
