AAF Week 3 - General and Live Games Discussion

I don't like the game with such a large spread. Memphis isn't as bad as they appear, but I don't trust Singletary or Hackenberg and he showed frustration last week with his OC. They could have a fair chance of covering in theory if they run it 90% of the time, grind clock, and try playing a field position kind of game.

But Orlando will get their points regardless and they're good at 2 pt conversions, so any INT's by Hackenberg that get converted into points could destroy any conservative gameplan of Memphis's quickly. Memphis got shut out on the road 26-0 against Birmingham and while the Iron have a better overall defense than Orlando, that still doesn't bode well for Memphis since Orlando's offense is much better than the Iron's.

AAF:

Memphis-Orlando Under 22/45 [1H/FG]

Thank you for the reply Twilo I really appreciate it! I'm going to wait for live betting or 2H lines. I want to see how Memphis looks like in the beginning first.

Hackenberg was just not meant to be a football player and certainly not a QB. Hah!

Memphis has 2 better backups on their depth chart in Zach Mettenberger and Brandon Silvers, I don't understand why one of them isn't starting instead.

Great analysis bud. 'The Hack' reared his ugly head almost immediately in this one. He has no business being anywhere near a football field.

And somehow Mike Singletary fails to understand this. He insists on continuing to throw the ball when their running game is their strength. It really is strange.

Well not all of them............

The Hack misses a wide open receiver in the flat on 2nd & 8 which would've likely gotten Memphis into the redzone since he had a ton of space to run. Then The Hack takes a terrible sack on 3rd down. This team could be a lot better with a heady game manager type of QB.

Luckily for Memphis, Spurrier makes a boneheaded decision to go for it on 4th and 1 from his own 38. And Memphis stops the easy FB dive. Now let's see if Memphis can get any points out of this golden opportunity.

Nope. No points for Memphis.

2 plays later another atrocious INT by The Hack. The Hack was rolling to his right, got near the sideline, then throws back against his body towards the center of the field and it was an easy pick by Orlando.

It's beyond crazy that this guy has a job as a QB.

Another easy 1H under in AAF. Nice job bud. Good luck with your Full Game Under as well.

2H Lines

Orlando -7

20.5 O/U

Orlando 14 O/U

Memphis 7 O/U

Anyone going to play anything here?

I'm not. I decided to tail NuSkool and am just sticking with that after already winning the 1H bet.

Memphis definitely needs a new QB though you're right!

They could just as easily be winning this game right now since their defense has played pretty well.

So happy Mettenberger has come in. Finally Singletary does the right thing.

And right on cue.... TOUCHDOWN! Beautiful throw by Zach and great job avoiding a couple different sacks on that drive. Running game working well too.

9-6 Orlando

Wow what an answer by Orlando. 4th down scramble deep throw for a TD by Gilbert. Spurrier definitely doesn't like to punt. Hah!

15-6 Orlando. This one's starting to heat up.

15-9 now with 14 mins to go in 4th. Memphis really needed a TD there being down 9, but they're still right in this.

Great answer by Orlando for a TD but miss the 2 pt again. Gilbert was huge with his feet on that drive converting several 3rd downs with clutch scrambles.

20-9 Orlando with 8 Mins to go. Memphis still playing hard, across midfield now.

Wow! 3rd & 20 and Mettenberger throws a perfect bomb for a TD and they convert on the 2 pts.

21-17 Orlando with 5:30 to go.

Orlando runs out the clock with some great run blocking and takes a knee near the goal line at the end to secure yet another AAF Under.

21-17 Orlando final. Turned out to be a great game once Singletary made the QB switch.

If Memphis sticks with Mettenberger they're going to continue being a very dangerous dog.

Nice 2-0 sweep on your Unders bud.
