    Bama +7-130 beyond max bet. This line is a joke. Bama ml for 1/3 of max 

     

    this is an uncomfortable bet size for me but it’s just too easy to pass up. Bama should be a favorite here.

    Nothing is a lock…That OU team was flawed and so is Alabama.  You disrespect IU because of our pre Cignetgi track record.   It will be a good game and IU should win.  No play for me on the spread…

    Alabama is the bigger, stronger, faster, more experienced, and more battle-tested team.  In the end, I don't expect the game to be very close.  But yes, Alabama is clearly the better team here, and should be favored.  Forget the points, and bet the ML with confidence.

    Alabama isn't flawed so much as injured.  The vast number of injuries Alabama has had to battle through this season has led to inconsistent play.  When Alabama plays Indiana, they will be the most healthy that have been since Week 1, and that is very bad news for IU.  Alabama WILL win this game convincingly.

    Defense wins championships.  Indiana has an excellent one.  This team was built through the transfer portal.  Indiana isn’t your little sister anymore.  They are very talented.  They’ll beat Alabama.

    Keep at it.

    I will certainly sleep better knowing it's a lock now. How could I have been so naive ? Gonna increase my bet.

    Sometimes I do 4 or 5 bets. And it's always my most confident pick that I lose.  Nothing against the Alabama pick or anything.

    @KTriple

     Actually Saban isn't gone.  He is still on Alabama's payroll, but no need to elaborate on that, because it will have no bearing on the outcome of this game.

    I've watch almost every game both teams have, some like the Big 10 title game multiple times, and I can't find a single advantage for IU in the game.

    I think Alabama will jump out to an early lead, and make IU chase points the entire game.  If that happens, then I believe:

    a) Alabama will out-rush Indiana (also because IU loves to play a 2-deep shell which invites the run)

    b) Mendoza will throw more than one pick - Mendoza is easily rattled by pressure.
