And even more exciting is that both of these games are showing valuable betting edges according to our College Football PRO Projections, which are compiled by our very own Collin Wilson.

Using The Action Network's betting tools, let's pinpoint the edge worth betting for Notre Dame vs. Alabama.

Notre Dame vs. Alabama Picks

At -19.5, Alabama is the biggest favorite in the history of the College Football Playoff, so the betting market isn't exactly expecting a nail-biter in the Rose Bowl.

However, our model does expect Notre Dame to be competitive enough to keep the margin of victory within the 19.5-point spread.

We project the Rose Bowl spread to be Notre Dame +13.5, which translates to a 4.2% edge when compared to the current consensus line of +19.5.

In fact, by comparing lines on The Action Network's College Football Live Odds Page, we can make this edge even bigger by shopping for one of the many sportsbooks at +20, like BetMGM.
