Returning production
| UConn | Southern Miss | |
|---|---|---|
| Overall | 2% | 90% |
| Passing | 3% | 97% |
| Rushing | -0%* | 102%* |
| Receiving | 2% | 82% |
* Outside 0–100% on purpose — production is PPA-weighted, so a departing player who cost his team yards pushes the share above 100 and a returning group with negative combined output shows below zero.
The read
- At 3.5 the line sits just past 3, so the games decided by exactly 3 fall on the underdog's side of this bet.
- A total of 54.5 sits right around the middle of real college football scores (the median FBS game lands on 54). That places the number; it does not predict the result — overs land almost exactly 50% against closing totals.
