Alabama at Mississippi State picks and predictions
Prediction
Alabama 88, Mississippi State 81
Moneyline
ALABAMA (-110) is worth a look straight up in this road trip as a slight, slight underdog. Backing the Crimson Tide straight up will save you a little bit of juice as opposed to taking the little bit of points.
Bama has dominated this series, and Mississippi State (-110) barely beat South Carolina in OT, it lost by 12 at the Tennessee Volunteers prior to that, and it topped Ole Miss, also in OT. The Bulldogs haven’t won in regulation since Jan. 7 at the Vanderbilt Commordores. Mississippi State is 1-3 SU in the past 4 games against ranked foes.
Against the spread
It makes very little sense to pay a little extra to take Alabama +1.5 (-120), unless you feel that Mississippi State -1.5 (+100) is going to win, but only by a single point. That would be the only reason to take the little bit of points.
PASS.
Over/Under
OVER 165.5 (-115) is worth playing lightly, but only go with a half-unit play at best.
The Over has a 3-2 edge in the past 5 games for Mississippi State. However, Alabama is the nation’s highest-scoring team with 90.4 points per game. The Over is 6-4 in the past 10 games for the Crimson Tide, while hitting 5 of the past 7 meetings against the Bulldogs.
