Is Alabama as Good As Vegas Thinks Against SEC West?

By: Larry Burton

Alabama is an early favorite against the SEC West according to sports books in Las Vegas and even the tough teams, LSU and Texas A&M are at least a two touchdown underdog. The rest of the teams are much more a dog. Is Alabama really that far ahead of everyone in the West? Let’s take a look.

The early test is Texas A&M, now comfortable with the new coach and his style of playing. Sure last season Alabama almost doubled them up with a score of 45-23, but this season the Aggies are expected to have a little more punch in their offense than last season.
