Week 5 of the college football season is here, and there is one game that stands out above the rest: No. 2 Georgia at No. 4 Alabama.
Undefeated Alabama (+1.5) is currently a home favorite for the first time since Nov. 3, 2007, an incredible streak of 113 games that looks likely to end on Saturday against the 3-0 Bulldogs.
From Thomas Gable, sportsbook director at The Borgata in Atlantic City: “We opened Georgia 2.5-point favorites. Me, personally, I tend to make the game a pick-em in Alabama. Georgia is now -1.5. It’s been mostly early Alabama money, they took the -2.5 and took 2, and the ML when it was +115 and +120. I think this is probably where it stays. No question it’s going to be a huge write on this game, especially since it’s in prime time. Ton of parlays going into this game on both sides. You’re going to get people on both sides of this game.”
I’ll have much more info from bookmakers and best bets in my full college football report tomorrow morning, but I’ve gathered over 40 best bets on the weekend’s college football games from some respected handicappers to hold you over today.
