I wish I had stayed up much longer to see this, what was the odds on this game for ML? They seem to have won so comfortably too, beating Ohio State Buckeyes by more than double the points (I have no idea how NFL really works but that seems like a trashing to me).
We don't get to watch these games a lot anyway, wonder if I should start learning the game as a lot of promos missing out on just because I don't know all these sports:)

This is NCAA not the NFL, college football
From my understanding, a game is divided in 2 halves and 4 quarters just like in basketball and team can get points from scoring touchdowns, stopping the opposition from getting a touchdown and kicking the football up through the goalpost.
Decimal odds for Alabama winning were really low around 1.3x so I didn't bother betting in that game. The handicaps were decent though, sadly I forgot the number of points AH that Sportsbet was offering for Tide and Buckeyes.
I get that NCAA could be more "fun" according to some people because it is played with a tiny bit more amateur feeling by a lot of the players, I suppose most of them will not even be drafted to NFL, they are there just because they want to have fun and maybe got a scholarship so they can get an education and degree out of it at least, most teams do not have like 10 players who will go to nfl, maybe a few at most with exception of the top teams of the season.
However it also brings that amateur spirit in the game as well so a newcomer who wants to learn should watch NFL which (except steelers I suppose) plays a lot better and with a lot more talent so you see the pure game and not just people having fun. That way you can learn it a lot quicker, then can move on to ncaa if you want to.
