North Texas vs Florida Atlantic Prediction
The FAU Owls aren’t the same team from past years, and their defense continues to head in the wrong direction. FAU has allowed 73 or more points in eight of its last 10 games. Florida Atlantic has also failed to cover six of its last seven games. The North Texas Mean Green are undefeated at home through 10 games, and they’ve covered four of their last five games overall. North Texas is also top five in the country in defensive points allowed. I don’t trust FAU’s ability to get enough stops to beat decent teams, especially on the road. Look for North Texas to remain unbeaten at home while winning by double-digit pints.
