#301/302 ASA PLAY ON Under 55 Points – Troy vs South Alabama, Tuesday at 7:30 PM ET - This Sun Belt rivalry has been a low scoring series and we don’t see that changing tonight. Over the last decade these 2 have a record of 7-2-1 to the Under with the average total points scored just 40. The last time these 2 topped tonight’s total (currently 55) was back in 2013, which is actually the only time this game has topped 55 points. Troy’s offense lost pretty much everyone from last year and they have struggled to say the least. They rank 110th in total offense and are averaging only 20 PPG (112th). If we subtract their game vs FCS Florida A&M, the Trojans have not topped 26 points in any game this season. South Alabama’s defense doesn’t have great numbers, however much of that is because of 2 games vs LSU where they allowed 42 points and North Texas (5th nationally in total offense) where they allowed 52 points. In their other games the Jaguars have allowed 14, 16, 18, and 27 points. South Alabama’s offense is solid (32nd in total offense) but if we subtract their game vs FCS Northwestern State where they scored 87, yes 87 points, the Jags are averaging just 26 PPG. Troy loves to play a slow paced game (outside the top 100 in seconds per play) and they know they need to run the ball and keep this one low scoring to have a chance. South Alabama is not a fast paced team (56th in tempo) so we don’t expect many offensive possessions in this game. Under is the call.
