Both teams are coming off wins in their final games as Alabama dominated Florida in online sports betting in the SEC Championship game while Texas just slipped past Nebraska in the Big 12 title game.
Sport betting saw Alabama run away from Florida in the SEC title game as running back Mark Ingram had a huge game. The Crimson Tide rolled 32-13 over Florida in sport betting. Now Alabama gets a chance to win their first national title since 1992. Ingram could end up winning the Heisman Trophy as he is the leading contender as online sports betting info shows.
He rushed for 113 yards and three TDs in the sport betting win. “Our standard was to be as good as Florida,” Alabama linebacker Cory Reamer said. “Today, we were better than them.”
The Gators will meet Texas in the national title game but it almost didn’t work out that way. The Longhorns needed a 46-yard field goal from Hunter Lawrence as time expired to defeat Nebraska 13-12. Texas quarterback Colt McCoy was sacked nine times and threw three interceptions. “We had so many things not go our way tonight,” McCoy said, “but we found a way.” Texas was very fortunate as they almost ran out of time at the end of the game but they did ultimately prevail.
Alabama will be favored by just over a field goal in sport betting in the national title game on January 7th from Pasadena, California. Alabama is 8-5 against the online sports betting odds this season. They top-ranked defense in the nation in terms of fewest points allowed and should give Texas all kinds of trouble. The Longhorns couldn’t do much of anything against Nebraska’s defense and Alabama’s is better.
Texas was not as successful in sport betting this season as they went 5-7-1 against the spread. They are an underdog against Alabama and may have a tough time if they don’t get their recent offensive struggled solved. The Texas defense is still tough as they are 8th in the country in fewest points allowed as online sports betting statistics indicate. That could mean a very tight low-scoring national title game in sport betting between Texas and Alabama.
