Pick via FOX Sports Betting Analyst Will Hill
This is another case where timing of the bet is key. If you do like the Over, wait.
This game is notorious for staying Under, much like the Hall of Fame Game in the NFL, and that depresses the price of the total.
People will hear the trend all week that this game typically goes Under, and bet accordingly. Here’s the thing about this game usually staying Under — this total used to be in the high 40’s, then low 40s, then eventually 30s. Now we’re at 27.5!
I think it continues to drop.
Keep in mind, three out of the last four matchups have seen 30+ points scored, so while this total should be low, I think it’s too low.
Wait, and maybe you’ll even get 26.5, which is a key number considering a 17-10 game would then put you over — but I’m being a little different here and going over.
PICK: Over 27.5 points scored by both teams combined
