Vols open as 9pt dogs to Alabama

Discussions about point spreads need to take into account the fact that they are not necessarily an indicator of an expected outcome in the game. By in large, it is a measure of the betting public's expectations and other factors, designed to get something approaching equal "action" on both sides of the line. There is nothing "stupid" about a betting line if bets are somewhat evenly distributed on either side.

After watching the A&M game, I have a feeling that Josh was preparing for Bama during the bye. I like it. Take back the series

Wonder if the refs are betting the over or the under in this game?

Have you seen our qb? Have you seen how we play on the road?

Alabama will stack the box and make Milton connect on a few deep shots Saturday afternoon to win this game.

The same was said last week about A&M....

If Milton and those receivers don't show up to play some real Tennessee football downfield, well then it won't matter because Bama will win by 21 points or more. There has to be field some down field movement in order to take pressure off the run game...A 6 yr qb should be able to move the ball especially escaping the pocket...

I have a feeling it will be Alabama -3 before kickoff

I hope you don’t bet on sports. You get these line moves wrong every week.
