Is 37 a key number for totals?

[SportsFan818]

Like in the Pit/Jags game tonight?

thank you

Nope... it is surpisingly off of the key numbers. 35 is 5 TDs and 38 is 5 and a FG. Normally low O/U's are at key numbers so I was pretty happy to get this at 37.

 

[SportsFan818]

i have 37.5 available and im going big on the over...so im debating on whether or not to buy to 37....27-10???

down big this weekend doubling up on this over....

I wouldn't bother buying the hook. 4 TD 3 FG is a pretty specific thing to buy onto... If it was a 35 or 42 I might, but even then unlikely.

Key Numbers

36, 37, 38 Are All Key Numbers In The 30's

But Wise Guys Rarely Buy On Totals, Maybe To 41
But Still Not Worth It

Yes, in the NFL 37 is huge.

 

[pickempete]

o/u ten key lines

30-33-37-38-41-44-45-47-48-51

this is what I use.

 

[PatrickMcIrish]

Yeah thanks Pete for setting us straight, some of the information given was bad in this thread.

 

[goodcall]

doesn't get more key than 37, then 41

 

[Coaster]

Great thread.
Too rich to buy off a full point.
What is the half?

 

[Jetplane]

I leaned the under... boy was i wrong.

37 is the mode number for the NFL.

Meaning 37 is the #1 total that shows up the most amount of times when you look at a list of all the NFL games ever played. The average Total for an NFL game has been 42 throughout the years.

Fellas - I wrote this up along w/ an e-mail I sent out a few weeks back related to another game that had a total of 37:

In games where the total is lined between 34 and 39 (all games played where the total was equal to or between those numbers), the final score which was landed on more than any other was 37. Both teams combined to score 37 points roughly 4.9% of the time. Now you may look at that number and consider it to be small. However, think of this:

Both teams combined to score 39 points 1.2% of the time
Both teams combined to score 38 points 2.6% of the time
Both teams combined to score 36 points 2.1% of the time
Both teams combined to score 35 points 2.2% of the time

Therefore, having 37 would allow you to push on a number that occurs twice as often as 38, 36, or 35.

You having 36.5 will allow you to win on 36, but you lose on 37, which is twice as valuable than 36. Therefore, I highly recommend if you at all were contemplating playing this under, you take U 37.

Part of the reason 37 is the mode (I'm guessing without looking at the historical final scores) is that most games tied 17-17 late are going to end up as a 20-17 final -- so I would think that 37 grows in importance in games that rate to be close.
