| SPRTSBK Vi Consensus~ Alabama -14½ vs Tennessee (Sunday morning.)

I think the UT to cover money is going to the largest line, driving it down. I don't think the line moved because of an injury update.
Exactly. Tidestalker was correct in that the Vegas oddsmakers obviously set the opening line thinking that Young would play. And I should have qualified that in my reply to him. Because of the online betting sites, opening lines are being set earlier and earlier. The Bama -ut line was set at 16 1/2 by Fanduel on May 10 at 11:45 PM ET.

I'm not sure that 14' line yesterday was good to begin with.
The VI Consensus was at -14.5 yesterday morning. To get that number they apparently use the number that is most common at all of the sportsbooks. They would be better suited to use an average of all the numbers. As the OP shows there were some already at 8 1/2. The timeline of all the line movements is in my link above in post #25.
 
I keep wondering if Bryce's "doctor" will "decide" that his shoulder needs another week of rest before being ready for the remaining SEC West schedule.
 
It's sore. College football has good drugs.
True...they can limit pain to some degree...but ...let’s consider this....for a moment....and it hurts me to say it....
But
Tennessee doesnt matter..win or lose...it doesn't matter
Have all rest of SECw...to play...win it ( and who is an obstacle ?) and then SEC CG....and thats a bid to CFPs

Can give him 3 weeks to be better.... should be 100% in 3 weeks...

Could lose him for season if hurt again...

Just a thought

I understand the nature of the schedule and how to retain a way forward, but it's Tennessee. It matters. One loss would have to be the only loss to get in.
 
IF you're thinking about the same shoulder, every quarterback could be lost if they were hurt in the same fashion. While it would be the same injury, it would be new: no structural damage with his shoulder.
I know. Every player is subject to same...but if its more suspect....
And could cost hime 2–4 secw games....
Is something..because whatever it is...already lost him for 1 SECw game....
...couldnt afford a msu loss....
