With less than an hour until kickoff in Atlanta, Alabama is still a 14-point favorite over Washington (per Odds Shark).
The Crimson Tide have consistently been heavy favorites in this contest dating back to when the first line came out.
With that said, there’s an interesting trend unfolding right before the contest begins:
The @MGMRaceSports has taken one six-figure bet on the Alabama-Washington game. It was on the underdog Huskies.

Only 36 bets separate Alabama and Washington @LVSuperBook. $ is 2-1 in favor of the Tide. "More moneyline on Washington than a normal dog."

There seems to be a late influx of money headed towards the Huskies. One professional better has thrown a six-figure number in favor of the underdogs.
In addition, there’s more of a moneyline on Washington in this contest than the typical underdog. The late movement is certainly something to watch for.
