Georgia will open as 1-point favorite vs. Alabama says @LVSuperBook, ending Bama’s record streak of 72 consecutive games as favorite


One point? Seems Vegas was just trying to end the streak IMO.

Bama will be favored by kickoff. We match up PERFECTLY against Georgia.

This is not true, we opened as an underdog to LSU in the BSCNCG in 2011, so in essence, if the money is bet on Bama, we still might be favored by game time, just like the LSU game.

Yeah, Vegas has always valued fan base opinions over making money.

Before some of our own dumbass fans come in here chest thumping, "I remember the last time we went into Sanford Stadium as an underdog."

I would like to preemptively remind yall that Mike Johnson, Antoine Caldwell, Andre Smith, Marlon Davis, and Julio Jones will not be making the trip with us this year.

Fair enough, but Matthew Stafford and AJ Greene won't be making the trip with them, either.

UGA will definitely be favored at game time. Line will be 2.5-3 in a few hours.

Nah. Have made zero bets this year. Did put a few hundred on AU to win the NC at 10:1 in vegas last month.

That hasn't turned out so well, but I do that every year.

Bama is pretty badly overvalued by bettors though, which has caused artificially high lines for a while now.
