Happy Monday, everyone. It’s Christmas Eve, and not many reporters are putting out much coverage of the game just yet. As always, however, we will give you what we have.
Smart betting pick
These teams ranked No. 1 and No. 2 in scoring this season, but Alabama owns a huge advantage on defense. Also, while Tide quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is dealing with a sore ankle, backup Jalen Hurts led the comeback in the SEC championship game victory. Smart money here gives the points.
The general consensus thus far is that Alabama should cover the spread.
