Huge difference between that and the Vegas line of -7.5. This seems like a lot of value. Translates to Indiana has over an 80% chance to win

This is one of the bigger differences I have seen in one of these CFP matchups

Indiana at -13.5 just doesn't jive with me. If I gambled I'd be all over it. Vegas line I wouldn't touch.

Yeah I’ve never bet before and I really want to. I think Alabama wins big.

I don’t think they win big but I think indianas gonna hit a brick wall against their D and I think Bama can win. Still think it’s gonna take a big turnover and/or ST play for Bama to pull it out.

This is my thought. I have Indiana by 4.

ETA: A 21-17ish type game.

Think the rain is keeping the Vegas line down to only -7.5.

Think Indiana would be -10+ if no rain

Aaand then they immediately do that full retard 4th and 1 play call. Take the points or go up the gut, not some wildcat outside run

Vegas doesn’t think Indiana’s computer metrics scale vs. good teams. We kinda saw that a few times this year.

They are also missing the national TFL leader now. Which won’t reflect in metrics

I suspect the SP+ number is reflective of the data from November into the SECCG when Bama flat out wasn’t very good due to injuries and the Vegas line is reflective of them thinking we’re going to see October Bama which was a top 5 team.

So we’ll find out this afternoon if the computers are under valuing Bama because of non reflective data points or if Vegas/fans are underrating IU because of the jerseys/reputations.

I believe Ohio State had a 80% of beating Miami.

We saw how that worked out
