College Football Playoff Public Betting: Michigan Take Lowest Percentage Of Bets In Semifinals<\/a> – originally posted on Sportslens.com<\/a><\/p>\n

No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide vs No. 1 Michigan Wolverines \u2013 Rose Bowl (Pasadena, California)<\/h3>\n

Taking a look at the latest CFP public betting figures ahead of Monday’s semifinals, courtesy of Action Network<\/em>, it would appear the Michigan Wolverines are being backed the least of any team on New Year’s Day.<\/p>\n

The no.1 ranked Wolverines, who are favored by 1.5 points against the no. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide, have taken just 26% of bets compared to 74% for their underdog opponents.<\/p>\n

Michigan opened as a 2.5-point favorite but the line has since moved in Alabama’s direction. The Wolverines cooled off towards the end of the regular season after a glittering start to the campaign.<\/p>\n

Quarterback J.J. McCarthy has failed to throw for 150 yards in each of his last four outings. Their defense is the program’s strong point though, allowing just 9.5 points per game \u2013 the fewest in the country.<\/p>\n

Alabama also boast an impressive defense and three of their key pieces on that side of the ball are expected to go in the first round of next year’s NFL<\/a> Draft \u2013 DE Dallas Turner and CBs Terrion Arnold and Kool-Aid McKinstry.<\/p>\n

The Crimson Tide offense has seen quarterback Jalen Milroe grow and prosper in the position in his first year as a starter. He hasn’t thrown two picks in a game since a loss to Texas early in the season and has since totalled 35 touchdowns \u2013 23 passing and 12 rushing.<\/p>\n

  • Michigan Wolverines -1.5 \u2013 26%<\/strong> of bets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
