The Alabama Crimson Tide have opened as a +2 underdog against the Georgia Bulldogs.  It is the first time in 73 games that Bama is listed as an underdog.   

The Bulldogs are undefeated coming into this game while the Tide are 3-1.  Alabama was an early favorite after Ohio State to win the College Football Championship.

The Crimson Tide haven’t been an underdog since the 2009 SEC Championship Game against Florida, when the Tide hammered the Gators 32-13 on their way to a national title.

The Crimson Tide are 0-6-1 Against The Spread in their last 7 games after allowing less than 170 yards passing in their previous game and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games on grass.
