This is gonna be a tough call: Cowboys have way more inductees the last few years and they are just within the 1,200 miles.

Distance between Dallas, Texas (TX) and Canton, Ohio (OH)

How many miles? 1167 Miles / 1879 Km

Oh man, I forgot a BIGGIE that will play into this game: take teams with recent uniform/logo changes. That's a big lean for the Dolphins.

Larry Allen factor is probably big. Also this is a revenge situation for the Cowboys, from the Leon Lett Thanksgiving game in 1993.

Zimmerman verdict MIGHT be considered a recent local tragedy for Miami. But Jerry Jones is a constant local tragedy for Dallas.

Might be too many offsetting factors at work in this one.

Are you figuring toll roads or no toll roads in the 1200 mile limit.

I am 8-0-1 in HOF games. I'm sure it's on record here somewhere.

Here's the system: Take whichever team has more inductees that year. If they are offensive players, take the over, defense take under.

If neither team has inductee, then take the team that had the most in the last 4 years. ....UNLESS that team is more than 1,200 miles from Canton.

In case of ties, take the team with more coaches being inducted. Once again the O/U is determined by whether or not the coach has an offensive or defensive legacy.

If still tied, take the team with the inductee that traveled furthest to attend the ceremony.

Here are exceptions that ovrerule the system: If one of the participating cities had a recent tragedy, take them no matter what. If one or more parents of a participating head coach is in attendance, GO AGAINST that coach. Head coaches don't like the presence of parents in the preseason.

If the 3rd string quarterback from either team is from any of the following schools, take them and the over: UNLV, UConn, Hawaii, Nevada, Air Force, Louisiana Tech, Mississippi, Oklahoma State, Louisville, UCLA.

From these scholls, go against and take Under: Notre Dame, Texas, Utah, Auburn, LSU, Virginia Tech, Penn State, Florida, USC.

And of course, as always, the team with the most division 2 and 3 players will win and cover. But that goes without saying.

Hope this helps.
