Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs. Alabama Crimson Tide Prop Bets - Rose Bowl

The powerful Crimson Tide, who have topped 50 points in each of the past three games, are overwhelming 19 1/2-point favorites in the contest, also known as the Rose Bowl after the game was moved from Pasadena to the Dallas area due to California's COVID-19 protocols.

When the teams last met eight seasons ago in the BCS title game, Alabama trampled the Fighting Irish by scoring the first 35 points of a 42-14 romp. The Crimson Tide pummeled Notre Dame in the trenches, leading to a 265-32 edge in rushing yardage.

"We're much better prepared than we were in 2012 in terms of the physicality on both lines," Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said on a video call. "I think we have the ability to move the football, certainly."

The Crimson Tide (11-0) topped 50 six times and averaged 49.7 points -- second-best nationally -- while being led by a trio of big-time performers.
