Bama has been the favorite in every game since the 2009 SEC Championship game

Only 1?
Should be 5-6, honestly

Seems really low.

Seems ridiculous to me, since that means Bama is about a 2pt favorite on a neutral site. Richt factor must be the difference maker for Vegas.

It will change throughout the week. But UGA at home probably deserves to be picked... Alabama gets a 5* rb off of suspension this week.

This is exactly what it is.

I always thought the Vegas lines pretty much just factored what would bring in the most money as they will get their cut regardless of who wins.
Also, isn't Bo also coming back off of injury? I know he has apparently recovered in some insane'y short time span, but having to go live for the first time since the injury AND when everyone else has also had time to get their season legs under them may not be an ideal scenario for him.

I'd still take Bama

I doubt Bo plays too much. Maybe 5 carries, tops.

Does seem low but maybe Vegas thinks those Bama turnovers were important. While Bama's 2015 defense isn't 2011 Bama defense, they're better than the points they gave up against Ole Miss. If you've only got the run against Bama's D this season, it might be a very a long game for you. Looks like Georgia can run and pass OK, so they should be able to find some success on offense-vs- Bama's D. Should be an OK game if Bama's offense doesn't crap-a-load-on-the-road. We'll see.

true. Just an interesting stat.

They have an incentive to be as close as possible coming out, because they are making money off the spread and want to minimize a disproportionate payout in either direction.

Little surprised it's just one. It will be 5 or 6 by game time and is warranted.
UGA looks the part. I'm not sure if we are number 13 so far. I would like our chances against several of those ranked ahead of us though so we'll see how it shakes out. Ole Miss is Ole Missing and won't be where they are long. Looks like we will also be dogs to A&M, LSU as well barring any losses by those which is not out of the realm at all. Lot of ball to be played.

Seems right...this will be a slugfest...I wouldn't wager a bet on this game...could go either way
Posted on 9/27/15 at 11:14 am to StopRobot
I'm going to put it all on Bama so I'm happy with any outcome.

I personally doubt it, since y'all get LSU at home. For A&M, y'all are a little bit better overall right now, and y'all probably run all over them. Should be a good weekend with LSU-UF that Saturday as well.

Not sure about that.Watched the ULM game almost in it's entirety and thought the defense was smothering and you guys played it as vanilla as possible.
I thought ULM would get at least a couple of drives against you.Their QB and that WR (Ceaser I believe) impressed me and also moved the ball when we played em.
No doubt your QB play needs some work but I know you get that RB back for our game as well.
