Over and under

Post by commadore »

For our game the over and under is 63.5. In what world do these two teams score that much. If I were a betting man, I'd bet a ton on the under.
I mean even if Mizzou scores 40, that means we'd have to score 24. What are the chances?

Missouri is one of those teams that tends to get into 45-42 type games; they score a lot but give up a lot of points. I think they're betting on Missouri to score early and often against Vandy's defense, which has given up 62, 42, and 45. Vandy has scored 24, 30, and 21 points against teams with not-so-great defenses, so a 42-21 score is not unreasonable.

I thought the same thing in last weeks ut vs AL and took the under. Bad mistake.

Missouri's defense is legitimately terrible. As I posted a couple of weeks ago, if we have improved even the slightest bit on offense, it ought to be reflected in this game.
