Bowl Money - HooTrain Express - Board if you like

involved. sry.

What is everyone's prediction for the BAMA vs. OU line movement? I personally like it @-14 but I feel like if it dips under that it will prob be bet back over it. Where does everyone think the $$ will come from? I'd hate to take a -14 if a lot of OU $ came in and pushed it south. When do you traditionally place bets on these bowl week lines? I have a local that doesn't do far in advance plays and the online site I use does not (and prob will not) have these NCAA games up for a while. I'm only about an hour drive from Biloxi tho, so I wouldn't mind making a trip to put a decent play on a # that I like.

[/Quote] regular money will be on Bama from the standard fans, heavy hitter money will take OU so I’d guess line goes down early & back up toward game weekthat’s my prediction[/Quote]

Thanks, that was what I was thinking. Of course it is obviously different for me because I am a fan (of BAMA), but do you have a feel on what you think is the "smart" side? I have a rule that I try to stick to (we all screw up and break our rules here and there right?) that basically limits me to not laying DD unless that side has a very clear advantage in which to achieve that type of win. Usually I try to have this in the form of a strong defense. In fact, I was burned a few times, and then began to fade OU midyear simply because their defense was not good enough to cover their inflated lines. Obviously, anything can happen in cfb, but crimson glasses removed, OU has not stopped anyone this year, and this is the best offense they have faced. Meanwhile, OU's offense is historically good, but they haven't faced anything remotely close to what they'll see from BAMA. Even if OU moves the ball very effectively, they will bog down some and i don't know if their defense can prevent BAMA from pulling away. Combine that with the fact that after yesterday you have to think that saban will be intent on establishing the run and keeping Murray on the sidelines. I just don't see him being content with averaging 5.5 ypc against a far better defense, and consistently going away from what was working. I would also like to point out that while they still got the job done (for the most part) OU's offense sputtered/struggled if you will, in 4 games:

Iowa St, played sound, physical defense all year, yes they were in Aimes, but this was also before their offense became "Purdy" (couldn't resist)

Army, ran the ball effectively, kept murray off the field

UT (twice). Was not afraid to play physical and punch OU in the mouth, was able to contain the inside run, and was able to force turnovers. Ultimately, they just weren't good enough, but that inability to really finish combined with sloppiness has been UT's problem all year. That's why they're still trying to make that next step.

Again, anything can happen, and yes, Bama has struggled with teams that have elite rushing/passing qb's in the past. However, those teams predominantly possessed very good defenses coupled with, at times, very inconsistent offensive play from UA. Neither apply in relation to this matchup/possible cover. I feel like the foundation to stop OU has been laid, and BAMA has the talent and killer instinct to finish the job.
