LSU is #1 and many sportswriters love them. I guess Vegas doesn't care what the all-knowing sportswriters think.

In a game like this I would have thought 2 or 3 points at the most for home field.

The last time Bama had a game like this was the SEC Championship aginst Tebow and Florida in Atlanta. Bama made him cry.  ;)

^^^1 or 2 points. JMHO but that is the norm. I'm seeing a disparity here between the gamblers and the AP/COACHES polls. The gamblers have more confidence in Bama. The poll voters, too often, are voting their own interests.

Now that I think about it, if the initial line setters in Vegas were watching the Bama/UT game, and I'm 100% sure they were, they saw the crowd PHYSICALLY affect the game. So they maybe tagged on an extra point but it is high time LSU gets what they deserve--PAYBACK!
