Don’t Trust The Low Point Total, Take The Under
On paper, this game shouldn’t even come anywhere near 45.5 points. Combined, Tulane and Army are allowing just 33.5 ppg to opponents this season. Yes, both offenses are explosive and have crossed 45.5 points multiple times this season, they’ve held opponents in check, especially in each of their most recent games.
Tulane has held three of their last four opponents to six or less points. Army has held two of their last three opponents to just three points each.
Also, both teams are pure run-first teams with Tulane averaging 212.9 rush yards per game and Army at 312.5. Both of which are top-3 in the conference. However, Army is ranked first in rush yards allowed per game while Tulane is fourth.
This should take away each of their explosive ground games which could also result in less points and a slower-paced game. Tulane and Army already play at slower paces with under 67 plays per game for each of them already. That said, fade the high number on college football sportsbooks and take the under.
