Vegas would make Tigers fav. if we played Bama


Dec 1, 2021, 8:06 AM

They would look at most recent Auburn games and ours, which would make us ten pt. fav. at least.

If so, I would defiantly mortgage my house and bet on Alabama***

Did you lose house in the Natty champ when Tigers romped

No, I made a ####~load betting on the Tigers. Also made money when we lost to them as we easily covered the spread.

If Clemson did win this year it would not be by 10. We crushed Bama by us converting on 3rd and long the way Inhave never seen us do with the receivers (especially a fully healthy Ross) making insane grabs.

then why is a team that beat us (uga) only favored 7 over bama?

Factoring in the inevitable Kirby choke job

Georgia is only game now that we would not be favored


Dec 1, 2021, 12:59 PM

and that would be by 3 pts.

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

3 plus 7 = ten


Dec 1, 2021, 1:03 PM [ in reply to Re: Vegas would make Tigers fav. if we played Bama ]

Georgia beat us only by 3 really, and we are much improved since then.

Re: 3 plus 7 = ten


Dec 1, 2021, 1:07 PM

So Vegas would favor Clemson by at least 10 points against Bama, would favor Georgia by only 3 points against Clemson, but also only favors Georgia by 7 over Bama? If Georgia would be favored to beat Clemson then why would Vegas pick Clemson to beat Bama by more points than Georgia over Bama?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No, they wouldn't.


Dec 1, 2021, 8:47 AM

Game could be played in Tuscaloosa, in Clemson, in Paris, or in Utah. Bama would be favored in every single scenario.

You are aware that Vegas isn't so short sighted as to conjure up a line based on 1 game right?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Not one game but also their pitiful game against Texas A&M


Dec 1, 2021, 12:57 PM

plus S.C. Auburn game, our game against USC, and Wake Forest Tigers by 10 or more.

Re: Not one game but also their pitiful game against Texas A&M


Dec 1, 2021, 1:05 PM

If Vegas put that much stock into a few individual games then we would've never been favored against Wake going into that game. We as fans like to come to a lot of conclusions based on a single game or two, but it's not always that simple.

Take for instance, Michigan lost to Michigan State, and then Ohio State beat Michigan State 56-7 and led the game 49-0 at halftime. Based on that you'd figure Michigan had no chance against Ohio State and that Vegas would favor Ohio State by 20 or more. Vegas did favor Ohio State going into that game, but it was only by 7 points. I doubt Clemson would even be favored against Bama, but I'm 100% certain Clemson wouldn't be favored by 10 points.

I have watched several of their (Bama) games. Have to say, while their offense has been strong at times, they have been pretty off at times too. Their defense has been iffy at times but they won 3 of 4 struggle games and we lost 3 of 5. I'm not saying we would beat them but they are definitely living on reputation quite a bit. I really see them being exposed this weekend. It would depend on which one of our offenses showed up.

This I don't disagree with at all, also note that vegas


Dec 1, 2021, 1:27 PM

lines are not a prediction. They are simply designed to get as close to 50% action on both sides.

Public perception of us and Bama right now ain't in the same ballpark.

They would be favored by 4-5 if we played them in DV at night.
They would be favored by 6-7 at a neutral location.
They would be favored by 7-9 at Tuscaloosa

Vegas odds are the ultimate guide to bettors, not guess work


Dec 1, 2021, 1:41 PM

And Bama lost to T A&M who have lost several including last one to LSU. All of our loses have been to better teams. Seems you are watching lots of Finebaum

Lol nope. By your logic I guess Finebaum makes the

CFP rankings?

You may not be aware that they are ranked 3rd and we are ranked 20th. The committee I guess can't see that we should be ranked higher?

Odds are just that. Odds. Not some ultimate prediction guide. Good grief.

Better teams?, we lost to trash teams. You're either trolling or another clueless sunshine pumper-

If we do play A& M in Gator Bowl, what would be the odds?


Dec 1, 2021, 7:20 PM [ in reply to Re: No, they wouldn't. ]

And the beat Bama, I would say we would be fav. by at least ten.

Dec 3, 2021, 1:41 PM

you're not too bright. sorry, but i'm trying to be nice. you're putting too much stock into the bama/auburn game.. and, the bama/a&m game. and, way too much stock into the clemson/uga game before our offense had the correct mindset of how far they'd dropped from recent years. georgia averages 40.7 pts/game... clemson averages 26.8... georgia gives up an average of 6.9 pts/game.. clemson gives up 15. and uga is favored 7... and, you think we'd be favored more?


you're either a troll or just not living in reality. clemson may very well beat bama by 10.. but, NO WAY they're favored by 10... or at all.
