From the booth

The model favored ALA to win, and the call landed.

Alabama comes in as a heavy favorite here, eighty-four percent to win, and there's really good reason for it. The Crimson Tide are sitting at number eight in the AP poll with a twelve and a half point spread that the market's bought into, plus they've been stingy on defense over their last five games. South Carolina's got their work cut out for them at just sixteen percent, but in the SEC you never know what's gonna happen on any given Saturday.
