Texas A&M Aggies vs Alabama Crimson Tide Predictions

Prediction

Alabama is the likely winner, as the SPF odds make the Crimson Tide a -575 moneyline favorite and Texas A&M a +425 underdog. That price offers little return, however, and the available evidence does not include team records, recent results or season statistics to support laying 13.5 points. The betting lean is Pass.

KBTX reports that Texas A&M wide receiver Mario Craver, defensive tackle DJ Hicks, linebacker Daymion Sanford and offensive lineman Trovon Baugh were upgraded to probable. The Aggies will still be without wide receivers Terry Bussey and Kelshaun Johnson and offensive lineman Blake Ivy, while defensive end Anto Saka is questionable.

Alabama also has availability concerns. According to KBTX, center Racin Delgatty, defensive back Zabien Brown and running back EJ Crowell were downgraded to doubtful, while six other Crimson Tide players are out. Those absences do not establish value on Texas A&M, but they make Alabama's steep moneyline and two-touchdown spread harder to justify.
