got it...granted coaches are not making decisions based on point spreads but if the bookies knew something was up with Tua, who could barely walk after last weeks loss to LSU, its further proof Saban is guilty of leaving him in to long with the score 35-7.
Oh they absolutely do make decisions based on the spread. At least in the NFL and NBA. Likely College as well. It boosts their image and ranking.
“Saturday night in the Miami-Florida game, the Gators were ahead 23-3 and had the ball on the Hurricanes’ 12-yard line with less than a minute on the clock. The game was over and it was time to run the clock out like every decent football coach does on a regular basis. Urban Meyer, Florida’s football coach, couldn’t do that.”
