Super Bowl 2021 Odds: Betting Preview For Chiefs Vs Bucs And More OLDThe Independent Via Yahoo News4 Hours Ago

After a long and arduous 2020 season littered with cancellations, we are down to the final game. The No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes (7-0) take on the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide (12-0) in Miami on Monday, Jan. 11. The storylines are in full swing for this one. Ohio State wasn’t supposed to play this season, along with the rest of the Big Ten, and didn’t begin their regular season until late October. After playing just six regular season games, their worthiness of being selected for the playoff came into question. Clemson’s Dabo Swinney even ranked the team 11th on his final coaches’ poll. Here we will look at Ohio State vs Alabama odds and provide a full betting preview of the 2021 National Title game.

Both teams blew the doors off their semifinal opponents. Alabama beat No. 4 Notre Dame 31-14 in the Rose Bowl (held at AT&T Stadium in Texas) while Ohio State beat No. 2 Clemson 49-28 for the first time in the school’s history.

The Tide’s road to the championship was with little resistance as their only game decided by less than two scores was the SEC title game against Florida. Ohio State, on the other hand, had their hands full with both Indiana and Northwestern this season.

The last time these two played, the No. 4 Buckeyes upset No. 1 Alabama on the back of Ezekiel Elliott en route to their famous 2014-15 championship. It’s a matchup that’s sure to bring fireworks as the two indisputable best two teams in college football clash.

The previous matchup between Ohio State and Alabama in 2015 saw No. 4 Ohio State as a 7.5-point underdog, a game in which the Buckeyes pulled off the 42-35 upset behind 230 rushing yards from Elliott. The Over hit on the point total (which was set at 57.5).

Game matchup

With the talent that each roster has, this will be a game that comes down to playmakers. Both teams are elite in offensive categories (both rushing and passing), take care of the football, and are capable of moving the line of scrimmage. Whichever team’s playmakers step-up more will be the team that wins this year’s national title.

Alabama receiver DeVonta Smith finished the 2020 season with 20 receiving touchdowns despite being the No. 2 receiver through the first four games (to Jaylen Waddle – out for season with injury). He is the odds-on favorite to win the Heisman Trophy.

Smith will take on All-American corner Shaun Wade in the National Title game, which could present a mismatch for the Buckeyes. Smith has a step on Wade in the 40-yard dash (4.40 vs 4.48) while both players stand at 6-foot-1. Smith has been college football’s best player this season, gashing teams for 15.6 yards per catch.

Justin Fields leads Ohio State on the back of a remarkable 385-yard, six-touchdown performance against Clemson (both career highs). Fields’ health is worth keeping an eye on, as he took a vicious hit in the semifinal game that appeared to leave him with a painful rib injury (the extent of which is not known). Fields also played the Clemson game with a throwing thumb injury. He is not expected to miss the game, but it could impact his performance.

Alabama’s pass defense is playing one of its worst seasons in program history, allowing 242.9 yards per game (82nd) and a 120 passer rating (20th). Patrick Surtain II was named a first-team All-American corner this season for the Tide, but the rest of the secondary has struggled this season. Their 11.4 yards allowed per completion is 40th, which could be taken advantage of by Ohio State, which is 29th in yards per completion (13.5).

Alabama will have its hands full against the Buckeyes’ wide receiver corps, led by Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson. Olave and Wilson both made the coaches’ All-Conference team for the 2020-21 season and could create matchup problems for Alabama this week.

Heisman finalist Mac Jones will also be looking to exploit a Ohio State secondary that’s given up 11.4 yards per completion (t-40th) and a 113.7 opposing passer rating (59th). The Buckeyes’ secondary has struggled with tackling and has been burned over the top this year. Jones leads the FBS in yards per attempt (11.3) and completion percentage (77%).

While the headlines focus on the passing game for this one, both teams feature outstanding running backs as well. Alabama’s Najee Harris leads the nation in rushing touchdowns (24) and ranked third in rushing yards (1,387). Harris also has 10 career receiving touchdowns (three this season), making him a dual threat against Ohio State linebackers Pete Werner and Tuf Borland.

Oklahoma transfer Trey Sermon leads the Buckeyes in rushing, ranking fifth in the nation in yards per carry (7.5). Sermon picked up an Ohio State-record 331 yards in the Big Ten Championship Game and followed it up with 193 yards in the CFP Semifinal. Sermon’s late-season push is reminiscent of Elliott’s in 2014-15, where he averaged 232 yards per game in the Big Ten title game and the CFP. With the 2015 Sugar Bowl still on Alabama’s mind, Sermon will be a major focus in the defensive gameplan.

We’re just a few days away from Super Bowl 55, and if you’re the gambling sort, there will be plenty to throw some money down on.

Of course that includes the spread — if the Kansas City Chiefs will win by a certain margin or if the Tampa Bay Buccaneers can lose by less that margin or just win outright — the over/under (how many total points there will be) and the moneylines (a straight-up bet that results in a payout that depends on the number of the moneyline).

Moneyline Chart

We looked at these way back on Jan. 25 — here’s an update with four days before the big game.

(All bets courtesy of BetMGM)

Spread: Chiefs -3.5

This line opened at Chiefs -3.5, moved down to Chiefs -3 and has apparently moved again. That probably tells me there was enough money coming in on Kansas City that it had to move a little.

I think I’d still bet on the Chiefs here to win by at least four, but that line could be exactly where bettors are split. And that’s the idea!

Over/Under: 56.5

This is the same as it was a couple of weeks ago. This assumes a high-scoring affair, and that seems about right with Patrick Mahomes under center and a Bucs’ offense that could be trying to play catch-up.
