    Oregon/Oklahoma St. O/U 76.5

    Is anyone gonna take the Over here? That is fvcking high and its a bowl game. The line has only dropped a half. Any thoughts on it?

    Yes I took the under as well myself, I do think the total is on the high side.

    FWIW, the formula I use for college football totals (which is usually within a few points of the books) is at 79.5...so it seems like a reasonable line to me. But who knows how they are going to play tomorrow.

    the under is a great bet. Neither defense is great but they both run the ball a ton. I think the game will probably get in the 60's but it should go under with little to no problem.

    Accuscore is predicting this to be the highest scoring game. Could end up 72-74 in 4 OT

    Both teams like to score...... and should be a close game.

    I like the over.

    I will tell you this. Bowl games get alot of public action. Also, more times than not it will get most of the action within an hour before game time. Joe Public loves the over. If you like over you better get on it now. If you don't know and want action then u are better off waiting to see where it is going at this point and going the other way.

    If you look at the matchups, I am just saying that there is a good chance the games will go over. But, because they are bowl games and the lay-offs for both sides all three will probably not go over. Just my two cents...

    This game has the highest total of all bowl games, even over Florida/Oklahoma. I just cant bring myself to pull the trigger here, and no way I'm taking the Under with both these teams averaging over 41 points per game. Might have to do a teaser if I'm gonna lay any action.

    I blindly take the OVR in all bowl games as soon as the line comes out, like around 3 weeks ago, then right before the actual game, I will come back in a try to middle it. So far this year, that strat has work in the following bowls:

    Bowl-----------Start O/U-------Final O/U-----Amount of Points
    Eagle Bank-------42--------------44----------43
    St. Peterburg-----52-------------55-----------55
    Papa Johns-------52-------------57-----------52

    If the line stays the same, goes down or only gives a half point rise, I just leave it alone.

    In games where I didn't try to middle and just kept the OVR play.

    Bowl--------------Start Line O/U------Points
    New Mexico-----------60.5-------------75
    Las Vegas-------------62.5------------52
    New Orleans-----------54.5------------57
    Poinsettia--------------46.5------------33
    hawaii-----------------48.5------------70
    Champs Sports--------52.5-------------55
    Independance---------47--------------27


    So for the ones that I have only a OVR play, I am 4-3. Still have a long way to go to be able to evaluate whether or not this strat will work or not, but it does give me something to do besides drink and ski for a couple of weeks.
