Notre Dame vs. Alabama Picks
At -19.5, Alabama is the biggest favorite in the history of the College Football Playoff, so the betting market isn't exactly expecting a nail-biter in the Rose Bowl.
However, our model does expect Notre Dame to be competitive enough to keep the margin of victory within the 19.5-point spread.
We project the Rose Bowl spread to be Notre Dame +13.5, which translates to a 4.2% edge when compared to the current consensus line of +19.5.
In fact, by comparing lines on The Action Network's College Football Live Odds Page, we can make this edge even bigger by shopping for one of the many sportsbooks at +20, like BetMGM.
