According to oddsmakers from Bovada.lv, Alabama is the clear favorite in the SEC Championship, as the Tide are getting odds of -14.5 points against Missouri in Saturday’s 4PM ET kickoff (View Matchup). The over/under total for the game is listed at 48.5 points.

These two don’t have much recent history to go on. They last met in 2012 with Alabama picking up a 42-10 road win, covering a 21-point spread in the process. The Tide dominated the game, out-gaining Missouri 533-129 in total offense.

Missouri is 13-3 against the spread in its last 16 games against a team with a winning record and 19-6-1 ATS in its last 26 games overall.
