because enough people keep putting enough money on Michigan to keep the line there.

This...and a lot of that money is probably a result of Alabama fatigue and not based on anything football related. Its wishful thinking...something along the lines of "I hate Alabama...I hope Michigan wins"...and then betting on that wish. I suspect when lines are close that is often the case...real gamblers would probably break about even and the game would be even but dumb money based on emotions go to one team and the other needs some incentive for dumb money to even it out.

And those people are most likely jilted Seminole fans and people upset with the playoff committee's choice betting with their emotions.
