Official betting Preview of SEC Championship Georgia-Alabama

In the biggest SEC Championship Game in NCAAF history, Georgia plays Alabama in the 2021 contest. Georgia is laying -6.5 with a total of 50.5 at MyBookie after a world opener was posted at Betonline, the home of the opening line at -4 and 50.5. Early money poured in on the Bulldogs with 86 percent of bets and 83 percent of the money on the home-state squad. Both metrics lean towards the over with 52 percent of tickets and 66 percent of the handle on a high scoring game. 

Georgia is playing in their home state but doesn’t have as much of a travel edge as some may assume. The Tide will travel 187 miles, compared to 61 for UGA. The Dogs are 8-4 ATS, including 6-0 away from home, while Alabama is 6-6 in the back pocket. UGA has gone under 7-of-12 games this year, the Tide under 6-5-1. 

Georgia has a big edge on offense, especially in the running game, getting 1.1 more yards per rush, 2.2 yards per pass, and 1.4 more yards per play than their opponents normally allow. Bama gets .1 yards per carry less, but 2.0 yards per pass and 1.0 yards per play above what their foes normally permit. 

The Dogs hold teams to a stunning 2.1 yards per rush, 2.1 yards per passing attempt, and 2.0 yards per play (includes special teams) below their normal production. Alabama is solid as well, as teams get 1.7 yards per rush, .6 yards per pass, and 1.2 yards per play below their normal average.

Going against favorites of more than a field goal, but 10 points or less after allowing 5.5 or fewer yards per pass attempt is 64-41 if both teams average at least 8.3 yards per pass. This includes 34-11 more recently. This angle favors Alabama. 

Spread betting trends. All records are ATS: Georgia is 5-0 if they held their previous opponent to under 275 total yards. They are 11-4 on neutral sites. Alabama is 5-0 if they were held to under 100 rushing yards last game, but 3-7 if they hold their last foe to under 100 rushing yards. The underdog has covered 6-of-7 in the series. 

Over-under trends: Georgia under 7-1 neutral, under 28-12 after allowing less than 170 passing yards previous game. The Crimson Tide have gone over 12-3 if they held their last opponent to less than 275 total yards. The series has gone over 7-1-1. 

Top expert pick: Six college football winners up for Friday and Saturday. This includes Wise Guy side and total on the SEC Championship Game, first time we have had a Wise Guy on both the side and total is this doozie. Four totals, two sides at OffshoreInsiders.com    

Media Members Who Claim Patriots are the Favorites Can Put Money Where Big Mouth Is

Many scribes and talking heads in the media have crowned Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots as the favorites to win Super Bowl 56. They can get value if they put their money where their big mouths are as New England is No. 6 favorite to win it all at 10-1 according to Bovada

Few “Over” Teams in NBA; Best Teams to Bet on/Against So Far This Season

Who have been the best teams to bet on in the 2021-22 NBA ranked by sweat barometer AKA margin of cover? The now-healthy and rebuilt Golden State Warriors top the list by a fairly large margin at books such as Bovada

Team       ATS Record                                           ATS margin
Golden State15-4-17.7
Cleveland 13-5-25.2
Miami 13-73.5
Chicago 13-82.1

  Not all the best teams to bet against based on margin of cover have losing ATS marks. However, proponents of sweat barometer would assert the Grizzlies have had good fortune and would be overvalued. Worst ATS teams:

Team       ATS Record                                           ATS margin
Memphis 11-9-5.3
LA Lakers7-15-5.1
New York 9-11-3
Dallas 8-10-2.6
Orlando 8-13-2

 Best over teams at MyBookie and other books?

Team       OU Record (overs-under)                                         OU margin
LA Lakers14-85.5
Memphis12-84.4
Charlotte 12-103.7

Suffice to say, there have been a lot more under teams, though Joe Duffy, CEO of OffshoreInsiders.com notes that oddsmakers are adjusting and after dominating books with so many under bets, the Grandmaster’s computer software is now spitting out a lot more over bets as sharp computer moves. The top under teams:

Team       OU Record (overs-under)                                         OU margin
LA Clippers8-12-10.1
Oklahoma City 6-13-9.1
Denver 8-11-7.3
Golden State 6-14-6.6
Cleveland7-13-6.2
Minnesota8-12-6

Dramatic Shift in Heisman Odds; Conference Title Game Lines Released

Bryce Young is back in the Heisman driver’s seat.

Additionally, Michigan has moved into the No. 3 spot in terms of CFP odds, while Oklahoma State and Cincinnati are tied for the fourth-best odds.

Oddly Enough: Next Head Coach Florida Gators, Next college and NFL Coaches Fired

Dan Mullen is the latest casualty in the collegiate head coaching carousel, and a familiar face could be the next to fall.

SportsBetting  has made Steve Sarkisian the favorite to be the next NCAA coach fired. Sark’s USC Trojans were humiliated by rival UCLA this weekend.

As far as Mullen’s replacement, ULL’s Billy Napier is the favorite to take over in Gainesville. 

But…could Lane Kiffin swap SEC teams, again? He’s second on the list, followed by Oregon’s Mario Cristobal.

Finally, the sportsbook has updated its odds for who will be the first coach fired in the NFL. Matt Nagy remains the odds-on favorite.
