    Army/Navy

    why do they always post a total in the 50's only to have it get pounded down?? these teams haven't played in the 50's since 2005. 12 yrs since the game went over. seems odd to me that the total is always posted so high.

    opened at 51 down to 46 already. these offenses struggle because the defense knows all the tricks to defending the triple option

    I bet this game under every year, and it's rarely a sweat.
    Last year was one of my 3 biggest plays of all of 2016....and never got close.

    Came upon this stat from betlabs data. Under in games between service academies has hit at a 75% clip since 2005

    Again...begs the question...why do the books always post these totals so high??

    Because the books dont look at whose playing....they look at numbers from games this season....and both teams have played in a number of high scoring games. But you dont have to worry about Memphis or Tulsa running a play every 4 seconds, and throwing a 40 yard strike every few plays.

    Any team will put up 20pts against that Navy defense. Navy should also be able to get 20 themselves so since the total is set at 45.5, i'm leaning over right now.

    I remember distinctly teams scoring tonnes on Navy last year as well....but I dont think this game cracked 30....if it did, then barely.

    I just want to thank Vegas yet again for the free scoots!

    My biggest play of the year, and it wasnt even close! This will allow me to complete my Christmas shopping and then some.

    Does anyone ever bet this game over? I just cant fathom how high this number always gets posted at? It really does feel like free money to me.

    Great game. So easy on the under.

    I dont get it either. This total should be 40-41 every year unless Keynon Reynolds comes back to play for navy then it should be 45 lol

    These guys post this at 51 as the opener. Thats a joke

    Fast game too. The clock only stopped for a few seconds on 1st downs, and I dont recall one injury timeout.
