College football odds Week 6: How to bet Texas A&M-Alabama

Published

After an offseason filled with back-and-forth slander, Nick Saban and Jimbo Fisher finally meet. Jimbo's Aggies are headed to Tuscaloosa to take on Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide in a highly anticipated Week 6 matchup. 

The Tide are coming off a huge road win in Fayetteville in Week 5 where they dominated the Razorbacks from start to finish winning by a score of 49-26. Meanwhile, the Aggies were outmatched on the road by Mississippi State's prolific passing attack. 

Although Texas A&M did take down Nick Saban & Co. just last year, playing in T-town is a whole new beast. A&M's last win in Tuscaloosa was in 2012 when Johnny Manziel and the Aggies did the unimaginable. Do Jimbo and his squad have it in them to keep this one close? 

Here's everything you need from a betting perspective on the Texas A&M-Alabama game, from the point spread, moneyline and total Over/Under (odds via FOX Bet):
