Here’s the latest installment of the Play of the Day, which uses odds from the South Point. Our three sports writers started with a $10,000 bankroll — fictional, of course.

Indianapolis Colts at New York Giants over-51: $330 to win $300

I thought for awhile about going with the home underdog here, but I just don’t have enough faith in Eli Manning to take the three points against an Andrew Luck-led Colts team that could go off at any moment. However, I do like the chances of both of these offenses getting rolling, so today we’re going with the over.

Six of the Colts’ eight games have gone over the total, including last week when Indianapolis allowed Pittsburgh to top the number all by itself. And at home coming off a bye week, I like the Giants to match that kind of point total much more than their past couple of road games, losses at Philadelphia and Dallas.

Standings: Bern (51-46-1, $11,156), Keefer (45-54-1, $7,201), Brewer (45-52-3, $4,255)
