Published:
The Caesers Palace sportsbook has plenty of money on the Citrus Bowl today.
When it comes to who the public believes will cover the 7.5-point spread in favor of Alabama — to beat Michigan — the bettors are nearly all in agreement. Over 80 percent of the bets are coming in on the Crimson Tide to cover that spread and beat the Wolverines by more than 7.5 points:
Michigan vs. Alabama (-7.5, 60.5): 87.0% of spread bets, 81.0% of spread money is on the Crimson Tide @CaesarsPalace books. 88.1% of $ on the Over.

The over/under is also set at 60.5 total points, and according to ESPN Chalk’s David Payne Purdum, over 88 percent of the money is on the over as well. People are essentially expecting Alabama to win by at least a couple scores and for plenty of points to be scored in this game.
