"We're definitely rooting for LSU to win outright. Alabama is a big public spot," BetMGM senior trader Cameron Drucker said.

UPDATE 6:30 P.M. ET THURSDAY: On Sunday afternoon, the Crimson Tide opened -3.5 in The SuperBook's college football odds Week 10 market. Alabama dipped to -3 Monday, and there's been no movement since.

"More tickets and money on Alabama, straight bets and parlays," Degnon said. "That doesn't surprise me with Alabama, especially laying a short number at home. We did take some respected play on LSU +3.5, and that bumped us to 3."

The total opened at 60, went to 60.5 Tuesday and 61 Wednesday.

UPDATE 3 P.M. ET MONDAY: Alabama (7-1 SU/5-3 ATS) hopes to stay in line as the top one-loss team in the College Football Playoff odds chase. The Crimson Tide had a Week 9 bye, after beating Tennessee 34-20 as 8.5-point home favorites in Week 8.

LSU (6-2 SU/5-3 ATS) is pretty much already out of the CFP chase, though it can certainly play the role of big spoiler. Like 'Bama, the Tigers also had a Week 9 bye. In Week 8, LSU blasted Army 62-0 laying 32.5 points at home.

TwinSpires moved Alabama from -3.5 to -3. The Crimson Tide are seeing 72% of early spread bets, while 59% of early spread cash is on the Tigers.

"It's Pros vs. Joes. The sharp side is LSU +3.5," Lucas said.

The total is stable at 60, with 65% of bets/73% of cash on the Over.
