you're probably right. I'm thinking Toledo has too much offense. Will be able to score quick when they need it

Yeah I think so too - and I know AF throws the ball better than some other option teams, but with Toledo having a good run D, and bad weather outside, AF may need more out of the passing game than they've got.

Should be a good one - I think I'll switch over to Toledo

Toledo +2.5 isn't a whole lot different that Toledo -3

Not worth the tease IMO
This...games rarely end up decided by 1 or 2 points. The ONLY time you should ever cross a zero in a teaser is if you end up at +3.5. Any other time, it is a waste of value and you may as well just throw your odds out the window

thanks for the tip. I'm still learning the ropes. My thinking was that Toledo is going to win, so I'll take the sure bet. I hate taking bets at 3 points. kills me every time

TTT is correct as usual, i don't tease past zero unless I'm getting +3.5 or better. If not, you'd be better off getting air force plus the points

I haven't been ready the past 2 pages. What is the consensus?

I'm leaning to the over 69.5 and Toledo -3

Someone in the area said the wind chill is ridiculous and the ball is gonna be a rock. Hopefully this means more rushes and more clock eaten. I have Toledo -3.5 (shoulda bought the half point ) and a small play on the under 69.5

One key stat that has me leaning Toledo:

Air force has won 5 games against D-1 opponents. None of which have a winning record or made a bowl

I have faith that 2 of the worst defenses in college football can muster up 70 pts. If cold is the main argument, I think I'm going over

TTT, I have small play on under. Weather a big factor, cold and windy, 70 points is high, plus it's an option offense bowl fade. very small play though.

Those talking about teasing across zero or buying half points, I agree with everything said. Also keep over/under in mind. Buying points where the total is 70 as in this game are not worth the same as points bought in a low total game like Bama/lsu.
