The Florida Atlantic Owls have been terrific at home over the years, and they’re off to a great start, which includes a road win over Florida. However, let’s not overlook the Detroit Mercy Titans who are off to a fine start offensively, and they gave Boston College a scare on the road as 9-point underdogs. FAU is getting a little too much respect with this line. I’ll take a shot with the road dog.
