Sport betting on Alabama has been popular this season and that should continue as the Crimson Tide has moved up to #2 in the AP poll. Alabama trails only #1 Florida now and those two teams could end up meeting in the SEC Championship game later this online sports betting season.
Sport betting still considers the SEC the top college football conference and that is indicated by the AP poll. Florida and Alabama are 1-2 followed by Texas at #3. Alabama leaped over Texas this week in the poll after an impressive 22-3 win against Mississippi. The Longhorns didn’t look that good in their win against Colorado as they actually trailed at the half. Virginia Tech is ranked #4 while Boise State is #5.
Florida received 50 of the 60 first place votes after they took care of LSU by a score of 13-3 in sport betting. The Crimson Tide received 10 first-place votes and that is up from five last sport betting week. Florida and Alabama are accustomed to this position as it happened last year as well. Alabama was actually #1 last year while Florida was #2 before they met in the SEC title game. Texas could retake the #2 spot next week if they are able to get past #20 Oklahoma who they meet this week in sport betting odds. The Longhorns are three-point favorites at the sports book in sport betting this week against the Sooners.
The second five begins with #6 USC while Ohio State moved up to #7. Cincinnati remained unbeaten and is #8. Thursday night is a key online sports betting game for Cincinnati as they play #21 South Florida. The Bearcats are three-point road favorites in sport betting at the online sportsbook. Miami is #9 while LSU dropped to #10 after suffering their first loss of the season.
The second ten of the AP Top 25 begins with Iowa who just got past Michigan this week. TCU is at #12 after they defeated Air Force. Oregon is up to #13 while Penn State is 14 and Nebraska 15th. The Cornhuskers moved up six spots in the poll after their online sports betting win at Missouri. Oklahoma State and Kansas are 16th and 17th while BYU is 18th. Georgia Tech is up to #19 while Oklahoma is 20th.
The last five in the AP Top 25 has South Florida, South Carolina, Houston, Utah and Notre Dame. The Irish will either move up substantially this week or drop out for good since they host USC on Saturday in sport betting. The Irish are 11.5 point underdogs in online sports betting at the sports book.
