The Sharp 600

Even though the Saints defeated the Rams in The Big Easy this past Sunday, is New Orleans worthy of being listed ahead of Los Angeles in the Las Vegas power rankings? Is there value to be had in betting 6-point teasers? Should you pay attention to betting trends or are they considered somewhat useless? What would the line be if Alabama were to meet Clemson in the National Championship game and what is Crimson Tide quarterback Tua Tagovailoa worth to the point spread? For answers to those questions and more, @JoeFortenbaugh visits with Sportsbook Director of the Westgate SuperBook John Murray.
