80% chance of rain??? Better for the over, why is the total dropping so much from 70 to 64? What are you guys thinking tonight?

[JBC13]

wouldnt rain be better for the under??

[RJeremy]

I wouldn't let the weather change your decision. BG throws a lot of short passes anyway. Wait for the over to keep dropping and take the over if that's what you liked.

What type of field is it? grass or turf?

Thanks

I live about 20 minutes from Mobile, AL and it is already raining and looks like it is going to contiue. Also, thai it is grass a field

I think the wind factor comes into play more than the rain unless its flooding the field, then i would look for a running game,wich should eat up the clock, im going to wait till the last minute before placing on this one. I was originally leaning towards, bowling green -3 and the over 65pts. however, I might fade my own pick. after looking at http://www.sportsdatabases.com/Clien...n.asp?id=22671 it looks as if memphis might have a slightly better running game.

Memphis average run is 5.7 compared to Bowling greens of 4.7
If some one has some input on this i would appreciate it this game has me perplexed.

Thanks....I'm leaning to the under since Memphis has the better running attack (gonna run the clock down) also taking the points...

Wet Field Can Favor OVERS

When a field is extremely wet, it can create a lot of point....

Turnovers, inside your own 20, receivers know the route they are running--defensive backs have tendency to slip down--lose footing, etc...Results in "At least" a long gain...Could be TD..

Bad footing for Field goals, so they go for it instead, could push score up even more...

This is my opinioin only, but I've always leaned towards the OVER when you have a rolific passing team involved (BG), not to mention Memphis can throw also...I take the Under when its predominantly 2 "Running" teams....

LOL to ya, whichever way you go, I'm playing the OVER..
