This is a hard game to call from a side perspective, but I love the over in this game. Neither team can play a lick of defense right now and both are in the bottom 10 in the country coming into this game in terms of scoring defense. I think this has potential to be one of those 42-35 kind of games whichever way you have it going, so give me the over here.
