If IND don't score at all, OV is the play...

HALFTIME BETTING ANGLE #7:
When 21 points (exactly) are scored in the first-half, and the game total is 42.5 or higher, the game is more likely to go OVER in the second-half. (Caveat: The game is not a blowout, defined at one team leading the other by 15 or more points)
Explanation: Note that games which are expected to be offensive shootouts -- based on game totals 42.5 and higher -- tend to go OVER in the second-half when exactly 21 points were scored in the first half. This happens for a good reason. First, 21 first-half points probably means a halftime score is 14-7. It also means touchdowns have been reasonably easy to come by. Furthermore, the losing team will be much more interested in scoring 7 points than kicking a field goal. It also means that if the team in the lead goes ahead by 14 points, the losing team will panic and go for the end zone on every drive. This helps the OVER in the second-half.
