Big Sam do you happen to know a few guys from Andalusia, Al?
don't bother Moss... like you said, waste of time... same people who thought Georgia would blow out Alabama 4 weeks ago...
if it weren't for people who made bad bets, the rest of us wouldn't get to make good bets... we don't bet against the books... we bet against these guys...
first of all, why don't YOU explain why you think the line has dropped? what do you think the opening line on this game was?
second of all, why don't YOU explain what is telling you that 72% are on Alabama?
this new trend towards reading the public % and the line move has to be draining people's accounts more than any single angle...
1) the line has NOT dropped... the opening line on this game was 5... i know... i saw it the instant it came out...
2) you don't understand how to read those % numbers... 72% does not represent the amount of money on one side... it represents the amount of BETS on one side... so if 72 people have bet an average of $100, and 28 people have bet an average of $1000, then who cares about 72%? (yes, this is the reality of those % numbers... trust me!)
3) you still don't understand... because that 72% ONLY applies to the current number... so if it has already moved from 5 to 7, and then dropped down to 6.5, then you have no idea what % was betting it at 5, 5.5, 6... or then again what % was betting when it was at 7...
people are so freaking simple-minded, it blows me away that they allow themselves to bet... you are doomed to lose money! trust me! just stop betting... you will not win...
you guys are talking about how the defense of Tennessee is gonna give Alabama trouble... you gotta be kidding me! what about the defense of Alabama? because at least Alabama has some effective offensive weapons... Tennessee's offense is a turnover waiting to happen, even against a crappy defense... and the Tide don't have a crappy defense...
prediction... Alabama will score more points on defense then Tennessee scores on offense...
i seem to remember having all of these same conversations when Florida came to town against Tennessee... this will be no different... complete domination by a national title contender, against an SEC doormat... when did Tennessee suddenly become anything other than a joke? what games are you watching? Miss St? who cares!? Georgia? oohhhh... nice bullshit cover against a team that totally dominated the game in every way...
weak ass pick guys... weak!
The line stayed at +7 the entire week for that game with people thinking they were getting trapped with the Gators because the line wasn't moving. And what happened, the Gators blew them away
I was on Florida that day, and I'll be on Tennessee here. You're comparing apples to oranges if you think Florida and Bama are even close in comparison to style. Tennessee and Bama match up MUCH better than Florida did.
For those who keep saying they're going to pound Bama -7, please go to matchbook, I'm giving you +110 at that number. Thanks.
Arian Foster could end up as the Vols all time leading rusher. Ahead of guys like Lewis and Henry. He may be having a rough year because of their struggles passing the ball but he is a great back.

no you do not!
this line opened at -5 on Bookmaker, and that is the first book that is open to public betting... the lines on Vegasinsider are more projections than anything else... they are underground lines AT BEST...
the line opened at (-5)... and once again, you do not understand how to read those % numbers... if you do, then please explain what you think those numbers mean, and i will be right here to shoot you down!
