Can't believe there's even a line on our game.

I would stay away from that line like the plague, and we all know I can be a bit homerish

LSU only a 9 point favorite?! That has to go up. That means MSU has a chance and I don't believe they do.

Seems like Vegas is betting on letdown games from LSU and UGA following a tense, emotional shootout. That is understandable and a good catch by the line setters.

Florida State's line seems a bit high. I think it is an early kick game which seems conducive to one team not being ready to go at the start. Maryland hasn't exactly looked terrible either and they had a bye week to mend and prepare for FSU.

That one point spread in Ole Miss' favor seems like an easy money pick for the gamblers out there.

The OSU-NW game is the landmine game of the week in my opinion.

The Georgia/Tennessee line is too low. Georgia by 3 scores.

DzynKingRTR · Sep 29, 2013

Bama might just cover, Georgia State is really bad. Bill Curry left them with nothing. They get blown out by FCS teams.

But that doesn't require them to put a line on the game. I don't see anyone touching this game unless you're betting on Saban to hold the score down intentionally.

ASU/ND is kinda surprising.

We don't score 55+ often because of how we play == we never show up teams -- and figuring AJ may only play 2 Quarters at the most -- this is going to be a 300 rushing yard event....

The only thing surprising about that line is ASU only being favored by 6.

This one is really tempting. I think Ole Miss is going to come out angry. And their defense is good enough to make it long day for a very inconsistent Auburn offense.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Freeze is a Malzahn disciple right?

And Auburn's had a week off...so Ole Miss may be ripe for the picking.

I agree with your thinking, but I think the talent gap is worth a point.

BamaFossil · Sep 29, 2013

If I were a gambler I'd take Georgia State +57. I expect Bama to quickly get the starters off the field and give the others some playing time.

Crimson1967 · Sep 29, 2013

GSU is beyond terrible. They are a glorified FCS program in their first year as an official FBS member and only fourth year of existence. Their fan support makes UAB games look like sellouts.

That being said, Saban won't run up the score on purpose. He'll keep it on the ground and shorten the game as much as possible. If we top 57 it will be by accident.

Freeze may have been processed last night, the Barn could pull the upset.

We might cover on this .. may work out our offensive angst on Georgia State

allybama2009 · Sep 29, 2013

57 points is a lot and that's if we shut GA state out. You never know and they could get a score somehow. Then that puts us at 64 points. I would not touch this game unless Im picking GA state to cover. I would find a different game. roll tide roll!

I agree. I watched ASU/USC and thought at the half USC would win. A lot of what happened in the 2nd half was just poor coaching decisions on Kiffen's part.

I'll take the points.
