The under is the right call – but you can’t do that.
It goes against anything normal and reasonable to ever think a game might be able to get to close to 80 points no matter who’s playing. All it takes is one team to be slightly off or a few empty drives to screw this up.
Even a 41-35 shootout doesn’t get it done.
What has the Arkansas offense done to look like it can hang 40 on the board? The Ole Miss defense, though, is making every offense look wonderful.
Florida got to 51 and Alabama scored 63, but that’s Florida and Alabama. Kentucky was able to get to 41, and every Ole Miss game blew past 80 points combined.
It’s the Rebel offense, too. It’s so good that it keeps on pushing and forces teams to press more and play at the same level, so while asking for 77 combined points isn’t right or fair, yeah, that’s our 2020 season.
