College Football World Reacts to Army-Navy Total Going Over in OT

For the first time in 17 years, the over hit in the Army-Navy point total.

For the first time in 17 years, the betting total in the Army-Navy game has gone over.

All it took was a 10–10 game at the end of regulation going to double overtime to make it happen. Ultimately, Army beat Navy 20–17 on a 39-yard field goal by Quinn Maretzki that followed a Navy fumble at the goal line.

The game total in most sportsbooks closed at 32.5, which was surpassed at the end of the first overtime when Navy’s Maquel Haywood caught a 25-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Xavier Arline.

As one would expect, the reaction on social media from bettors and observers when the total went over was spectacular. Here are some of the best Twitter reactions from the over hitting in unexpected fashion.

The under in the Army/Navy series has literally hit the last 10 times in a row, and is 18-3 the last 21 matchups, and people had the AUDACITY to take the over.

Would first OT game in Army-Navy history resulting in an over on the point total qualify as a bad beat?
