I hadn't seen the point total, I just saw the spread for our game was Ole Miss -14 which I feel like might be too much. O/U 74 also seems like a trap because both teams have sneaky good defenses, just depends on if they can keep up with the offenses

The big question is whether or not Ole Miss' defense is actually improved from last year or they had a good half against Louisville. Because they started to bleed some against Louisville in the 2nd half (the game was already decided at that point so )

We both know offensively, Ole Miss will try to score 70 themselves

yeah I'm hoping the 2nd half vs Louisiville was just a first game lack of discipline mixed with taking some guys out. We did have some issues with penalties last week too vs Austin Peay that allowed them to score more than expected. To be honest I don't bet on games featuring my teams anyway but just wanted to give a little advice about how both teams have been playing before you put any money down!

It's mostly interesting to me because it's 74. Who wouldn't want to see 80 points!?

Oh believe me this is the ONLY game this year featuring Ole Miss or Tulane I don't mind being a shootout lol
