In the middle of the 2012 NC, my mom looked at my dad and me and said, "oh yeah, I put $500 on Alabama to win the NC in Vegas before the season."

I did put a wager on Ole Miss to win it all after our first game and then on Kelly to win Heisman when he actually had odds to win the following week. Pretty excited that they have a slim chance. +4000 hahaha

All tough to pick. Wouldn't touch any of them but would probably go with the home underdog Florida.

If I absolutely had to take one, I'd probably take A&M -7 over MSU. I do think A&M is good, and LSU could easily have beaten MSU by more if a couple of penalties hadn't nullified big plays or if we had opened up the passing game a little more (of course we also could have lost if Harris had thrown an INT when we did that). That was on the road in the opener for us when they already had a game. With A&M at home, both teams having played a few games, and A&M being more of a passing offense, which matches well with MSU's biggest defensive weakness, I think they can win by more than seven. Add to that A&M likely wanting to look good in comparison to LSU, and I think they will want to win by as much as they can.

Inb4Aggsessed--Y'all know as well as I do that it's true

ETA: OK, your post was a little unclear. Betting against the spread means you bet on either team with the spread in effect. If I have to take an underdog, I would probably take Bama, both ATS and SU.

If I had to choose one of those, I'd probably take Alabama +2.5. Actually, I'd take them straight up on the money line instead to make a little more. I think all the talk of Bama's demise is greatly exaggerated. Their loss to Ole Miss was pretty flukey, and I think they match up very well with Georgia.

I use Bovada and it's not bad. They haven't even charged me to get my money out. I think you get one free withdrawal a month and it comes in like 4 business days into your account. So not too bad

Step 1: Look up who LSU is playing.
Step 2: Make sure LSU is favored.
Step 3: If so, take the opponent and points.
Step 4: Profit

Would've lost a good bit of money had there been 2-3 less flags called on LSU

You should look up Les Miles' record ATS and get back to me.
