Alabama finished last season ranked 12th in the nation, with 30 on the season. Western Kentucky, on the other hand, didn’t do so hot: they were ranked 116th with 12.
Looking back to last season, Alabama had a phenomenal run, finishing with a superb 12-1 record. Similarly, Western Kentucky assembled a winning record last year, finishing the season 7-5.
Going forward, Alabama is probably looking forward to this one considering their 32 advantage in the spread. They finished last season with a stellar 9-4 record against the spread, so they might be worth a quick bet.
