Betting on the Over at 64.5 Points (-110)

The total at legal online sportsbooks opened at 70.5 points but now sits at 64.5 points with just two days before kickoff. With both teams possessing high-powered offenses but poor defenses, the over is the best bet in the game.

Last season, North Carolina’s defense surrendered 30.8 points per game, ranking 102 of 131 teams in the country. South Carolina wasn’t much better, as the Gamecocks allowed 28.8 points per game.

However, both teams score over 32 points a game. Bets on the legal South Carolina sports betting total at 64.5 points should be on the over in what expects to be a high-scoring affair.
