The game was against, yea, Georgia, in Athens, and Alabama was a +1.5 point dog.
Read MoreLas Vegas - A LAUGHER: a sports contest or other competition that is so easily won by one team or competitor that it seems ABSURD (caps are all mine). That's what happened yesterday when we tabbed the Cowboys as our BEST BET and they DEMOLISHED the Falcons, 43-3. Don't get too many of those so, yea, we'll enjoy for at least a few hours.
