Wild story brewing in Tuscaloosa

Apparently Alabama had made the decision to go with a line-up that featured less of their regular players and a pitcher who usually comes out of the bull-pen. And the gambling activity occurred prior to the line-up being announced.

Here's an interesting paragraph from The Athletic:
It’s easy to blame the wave of legalized sports betting but, as regulators point out, the system worked “within minutes” here. Less than a week after the game and just three days after the bets were flagged, the situation is likely resolved. Will that dissuade impostors? Maybe. We’ve seen plenty of point-shaving scandals in college sports, but none sorted out this quickly.
