People putting their money on Bama has moved the line. They must have listened to Barrett Jones.

Is this the $10 million bet I heard about? I love it.

Undefeated LSU an underdog in the Dome against a team they already beat in their place? Awesome.

So, if this game were in Bryant-Denny Bama would be a 5-5.5 point favorite and it would almost be a pick 'me if it were in Baton Rouge?

Unreal.

I imagine Sean Payton told Les what he told his team before the Superbowl, nothing better than being the underdog and knowing you have the better team.

I like it - being picked as the underdog to a team you already beat on their turf? that's a good thing because it should take away the complacency of taking another win for granted

You guys don't seem to understand how it works: The line moves when more money is bet on one side. They change the line to encourage bettors on the other side. In this case betting on Alabama is so heavy they're increasing the line to discourage bets on Alabama and encourage bets on LSU - but the line keeps going up because more of the betting public believes Alabama will win.

Well frick it! If bama is favored, then I don't know why LSU even shows up. Let's just head back to baton rouge and give them the title.


FYI steelers were favored by 9-10 yesterday in Denver and u see how that one ended!

LSU is undefeated and playing in NOLA.....oh yeah against a team they already beat....ON THE ROAD. I'm confident in the Tide but damn that line is puzzling.
