    Is this the year when the Army - Navy game goes over the total?

    For some reason this year I was going to make my typical under bet (35) and something told me that this is the year it goes over. I have absolutely no science to back it up but I went with it for a dime. I always put a dime on the under and a dime on the Army because I am a veteran, and I like to watch then talk shyt to my father in law who was in the Navy. So its been pretty good for the last decade as the under is usually a rocking chair winner so its not like I've been loosing that much. This year it goes over boys and girls, of course I took the Chalk with the Army as well.

    I'll tell you one thing though, I'm tired of chasing that over.
    They make the line 37, it winds up 31.
    Every year they make the line so low you think it can't possibly cover, yet it does.

    Use the over is some tease if you must bet it is what I say.

    Son of a military Navy engineer here.
    That game is the Super Bowl in our household.

    Haven't missed that game in, IDK, decades.
    I'm well aware.

    I'm an auto under bettor for this one. In fact I tell my friends who don't bet that this is the surest thing going in life. For some reason I felt the over this year just as I was going to press the under button here on the fancy thinking box. On Sunday I'll come back and be saying stuff like what an asshole I was and why would I do that because it always goes under, but for today it sthe over for me.

    Watch you'll see the teams roll up and down the field either kicking field goals or fumbling it away. Because you know there will only be like 4 passes total.

    That's an amazing streak. Mirror image teams, often grind to a halt.

    no, they play annually and it's always the last game of the regular season before the bowl season even starts

    usually the game is played in Philly on grass in rather swampy conditions, so maybe the turf at MetLife will help your over

    Wait until about 3 P.M. Then hit the over. It should be at about 31 to 33 at the most.
    Totally non scientific in fact I took it at 35 what a looser I am.
    Of course history would be heavily against you but every year can't be under can it.

    Doubtful there’s even 10 passes. Some of these games had to go over I see some games in the high 40s total

    The gm used to go over when navy could pass. Keenan Reynolds days. Navy has 0 threat to pass. Thats the issue. Army can actually throw a little in timely spots but for whatever reason they never seem to throw when they play the other service academies.
