Freak,
My local has bama -12 1h. Should take it? I know you said on best bets you usually aren't afraid with some line movement, wasn't sure if that applied to 1h as well.

Alabama has a tendency to score the bulk of their points in the first half. They are an amazing road bet under Saban in the last 3 years, covering over 64% of the bets. Inversely they have been an awful home bet, due to the inflated lines from home field advantage.

Alabama is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games on neutral, with an ATS loss against their win against Georgia last year. Against both Michigan and ND, who are in my opinion much deeper and more talented than Vtech; Alabama was respectively up 24 points and 28 points at the half. Although this is a different team with a weaker and less explosive offensive line, they are better on defense and have more depth in the WR core than before.

First Half:

Alabama: 24

Vtech: 6



With you on the 1st half Laroja!!!

I like Buffalo at anything over 35.  I think OVER is the best play however.  Ohio State is going to score at least in the 40s, and I think Buffalo will be able to contribute a couple of touchdowns as well.

Both are winners, but I would lean -21 as being the better play.

Anybody concern that the majority on this board and the media expect expect this game to be a blowout?  Everytime i turn to espn i hear blowout blowout blowout!  Remember brady vs manning, when patriots patriots come into the superbowl expected to blow the giants out?

Alabama is not being offered on the "Alternative Line," so obviously I'll have to delete that from the card.  I think they are trying to limit their liability on that game as much as possible.  I can't say I blame them.

I actually didn't make one in this thread.  I think your score prediction is in the ballpark for sure.  I'll say:

Alabama - 45
Virginia Tech - 3

I hit Western Kentucky on the ML last season, but with new coaching staffs on both sidelines this season, I really have no clue what to expect.  As I explained in post #1, I don't bet on new coaching staffs early in the season.  I broke that rule on Thursday when I bet Kent State, and it cost me.  I think it's basically a coin flip.

You seem to have these unders capped fairly well, it's just not going your way so far. I mean look at the scoring drives between FUI/Maryland, half the scores off turnovers and average drive time of less then 2 minutes.
