Looks like 'Bama is picked by +5 right now by bookies. They were +3 couple weeks ago. I guess the 2 pt bump was because of their total domination of a crap, crap, crap MSU team. Hard to believe the CFP misjudged MSU so badly and gave them #3! CFP is supposed to ascertain the best 4 teams and no way this MSU team belonged in NC, notwithstanding conference championship. Maybe they thought that since MSU won their last 3 by fluke, all those wins could not be flukes. But MSU is one of the worst teams I have seen all year, regardless of opponent. MSU had zero, nothing on either side of the ball.
'Bama, Clemson, and many other teams would totally dominate an opponent that brings nothing to the game as MSU did tonight. I would love to know the inside story on this game and why MSU showed up with nothing tonight. That was much worse than receivers having a bad night.
Anyway, I hope that 'Bama is supremely confident now. I would imagine that their team believes that they are that good, rather than MSU is that bad. Tigers will be the best team 'Bama has seen all year, just as OK did, and will have more trouble than they can handle.
What are their best wins? LSU, a strictly 1 dimensional team and another in Fla. Tigers got a lot more.
