The Crimson Tide (13-0, 8-5 ATS) come into the BCS title game as 3.5-point favourites, and it looks like public punters are buying the SEC champions. About 58% of bets on the spread have come in on Alabama after an adjustment on the initial line that had the Tide as 4.5-point chalk.
Pinnacle Sports Betting Lines currently has the total set at 45.5 points, up a full point from the initial 44.5-point offering. The Longhorns (13-0, 5-7-1 ATS) went a balanced 6-7 O/U this season, while the Tide finished the regular season at 6-6-1 O/U for totals bettors.
A glance at the betting trends for the matchup reveals the sharp play could be Alabama – and the under – on Thursday night. Texas is only 3-7 against the number in its last 10 bowl games and in its last 10 contests on grass. Looking at the total, the Longhorns have played under the number in six of their last eight neutral site games, while the Tide are 2-5-1 O/U in their last eight outings this season.
Alabama rolls into Pasadena after knocking off favoured Florida in the SEC championship game on December 5 at the Georgia Dome. The Tide outgained the previously undefeated Gators 490-335 en route to a 32-13 win as 4.5-point underdogs at the Pinnacle Sportsbook.
Texas had a much tougher time getting to the big game. The Longhorns needed a 46-yard field goal from Hunter Lawrence as time expired to slip past Nebraska 13-12 on December 5 in the Big 12 championship game at Cowboys Stadium. Texas came nowhere close to covering as 14-point faves, as the ‘Horns were held under 40 points for the first time since October 17.
The Longhorns are 7-0-1 SU all-time against the Tide, although the powerhouse schools haven’t met since Texas edged ‘Bama 14-12 in the 1982 Cotton Bowl.*All odds subject to change
