What would an Alabama-Buffalo Bills point spread look like? Oddsmakers release line for hypothetical game
Published:
During Alabama’s decade-long run of dominance, many have wondered how the Crimson Tide would fare against the worst NFL team in any given year.
That team was usually the Cleveland Browns, but there’s more debate this year about which professional squad is truly the worst. Among those teams is the Buffalo Bills, who would still be favored by four touchdowns against perhaps the best Alabama team Nick Saban has ever fielded.
That line for the hypothetical contest comes from SuperBookUSA, according to a tweet from OddsShark.
According to the VP of Risk Management at @SuperBookUSA (@golfodds), they'd set the Bills as a 28.5-point favorite in a hypothetical game against Alabama.

It seems like an awfully large point spread in favor of the Bills, who have a poor quarterback situation even with rookie quarterback Josh Allen healthy. Alabama, meanwhile, has thoroughly dominated its competition this season, most recently crushing No. 7 LSU for a 29-0 win in Baton Rouge.
Unfortunately, we’ll never get a chance to see this hypothetical college-NFL showdown.
