FAU vs Memphis Prediction

Memphis is the more talented team and has the ability to run away with things here. FAU hasn’t shown much resistance defensively and hasn’t played inspiring ball since Lane Kiffin left the program. The problem is, Memphis has had issues against the pass this season and is facing a top-20 passing offense in FAU. Florida Atlantic has also had an extra week to prepare for this game, and I love my dogs with the rest advantage, especially at home. Since 2020, FAU is 5-3 ATS as a double-digit underdog. I’ll take a shot with the FAU Owls and the points on Saturday.
