The total went from 55.5 to 56.5 Monday, then peeled back to 54.5 by Wednesday. This morning, BetMGM returned to the 55.5 opener. Ticket count is 2/1 on the Over, but money is running almost dead even.

UPDATE 3:30 P.M. ET MONDAY: Alabama (2-1 SU, 1-2 ATS) seemed to have a Week 3 hangover after its Week 2 home loss to Texas. The Crimson Tide went to South Florida as 34.5-point favorites and found themselves tied 3-3 at halftime.

'Bama went on to an extremely lackluster 17-3 victory and has questions at the quarterback spot. But coach Nick Saban said today Jalen Milroe will start this week.

Meanwhile, Ole Miss is off to a 3-0 SU and ATS start. In Week 3, the Rebels wrecked Georgia Tech 48-23 giving 17 points at home.

TwinSpires hasn't moved off Alabama -7 on its college football Week 3 odds board. But ticket count is 2/1-plus and money almost 2/1 on Mississippi.

"Ole Miss getting 7 vs. struggling Alabama is too good to pass up. Mississippi is a very trendy 'dog this week," Lucas said.
