Championship Game Thoughts

Had LSU in the first game. Loved LSU when the line first came out for the rematch. Am I missing something here though? The #1 team in the nation is basically at home and catching pts now?? Thoughts?

You're missing the point that Vegas wants even betting on both sides. The line don't mean shit in this one. Pick your winner and be done with it.

Personally having LSU 14-1 from preseason

I hedged in their 1st matchup, deciding if I will again

If I didnt have the future id lean heavier on LSU now that im getting a few points

dont see why the line movement would make me like LSU less

So how does making Bama -2.5 draw even betting? If anything, that gives the public more incentive to take LSU.
