Pick
I’m leaning towards the over here. I’m not eager to back either of these teams if I’m being completely honest, but both have been playing in high-scoring games a lot lately, likely because of a lack of defense, and I think that could be the case in this game as well. Seems like a high total for two of the bottom three teams in the SoCon, but it’s this high for a reason. Give me the over.
