How Can I Bet on Sports Online From Alabama If DraftKings, FanDuel Not Available?
Because sports betting is not regulated in the state of Alabama, companies that are based within the U.S. either do not take bets here or otherwise do so by getting around certain loopholes that we will discuss further below. Websites like BetPhoenix are accessible from the state to those 18 and up as this sportsbook operates courtesy of an international license while the sportsbook itself is located outside the U.S.
The Daily Fantasy Sports Model
Just as you will see plenty of commercials for DraftKings and FanDuel, PrizePicks also advertises heavily.
DraftKings and FanDuel do not take bets from those in the state of Alabama. PrizePicks offers a product similar to that of player prop parlays at a typical sportsbook. Many consider this to be another form of sports betting.
Some regulators have expressed a similar viewpoint.
Residents of Alabama ages 19+ are eligible to play PrizePicks Pick 'Em Arena in the state of Alabama. PrizePicks is not banned in the state.
The Social Casino Model
Social casino games are free-to-play gambling-like games found on social networking sites. Alas, these social casinos would not be in business if they didn't find a way to get individuals to spend real money. Instead of "gambling" per se, theses sites require users to make upgrades to their account through the use of virtual coins. These are considered "in-app purchases".
Real dealer online casinos like that found at BetPhoenix require direct funding through a credit card or cryptocurrency. You play with whatever is in your account. None of this virtual coins gobbledygook.
NCAA Men's College Basketball Championship Odds 2025
As of January 1, 2025, The Tide had the 9th shortest odds to win the NCAA Men's College Basketball Championship at BetPhoenix.
Auburn was the outright favorite at 6-1 odds. They owned an 11-1 record on December 31, 2024. Senior forward Johni Broome lead Auburn in points (18.5), rebounds (11.5), assists (3.3) and blocks (2.6) per game.
Crimson Tide Football Odds (It's a Wrap) - 2024
Alabama's odds to win the College Football National Championship in 2025 opened at 12-1, but dropped to 8-1 after a few nice wins.
Ultimately the team concluded the season with a disappointing (by Bama standards) 9-4 Straight Up.
They would go on to play Michigan in the ReliaQuest Bowl and lose 19-13.
The December 31, 2024 game at Raymond James Stadium was a rematch of the previous season's College Football Playoff semifinal won by eventual national champion Michigan at the Rose Bowl.
Jalen Milroe started at quarterback for Alabama as the Crimson Tide as they fell short of their 10th victory while also failing to extend an impressive streak of 16 consecutive seasons with double-digit wins.
Milroe's struggles in the ReliaQuest Bowl raise questions as to his NFL future.
A fourth-down sack, two fumbles, and an interception was how the veteran QB started the New Year's Eve showdown against the Wolverines, and thus placing them in a 16-0 hole.
