Looking at Howard @ FIU one thing that stands out is that FIU is averaging 29 fouls a game, and I had to look back at each box score and yes its true, when ya look at FIU's 2 road losses this year, they lost to Rice 77-70, and they lost at S.Utah 80-75 so ya have 2 close losses, but they did have 29 fouls at Rice and 27 at S Utah those games should not have been that close, each of those teams shot their ft's poorly, S.Utah 28/42 66%, and Rice was 23/38 60% if those teams shoot just 75% the losses get much bigger, this team has got to stop fouling teams, you cannot give up 35-40 ft's a game and expect to win, one good thing for FIU is Howard is shooting just 60% ft's but they do shoot better than FIU 44% to 38%, and Howard shoots the 3 at 43% to 27% for FIU, Howard is only averaging 14 ft's a game making just 8, I have a feeling they may get more attempts tonight...FIU is taking 23 a game making 17 , Howard is coming off a 88-84 win on a neutral court over ...considering Howard +4 for a play

N.Texas @ McNeese st
N.Texas is 3-0 and are coming off a road win at Minnesota 54-51, in a game where both teams shot poorly, NT shot just 20/53 or 37.7% and were just 9/16 at the ft line 56%...NT was up 23-14 at half so a very bad 1st half scoring just 14 pts.......MN was just 15/48 for the game or 31.3%, and they were just 15/22 at the ft line 68%, Minn did get it to 45-43 in 2nd, and were down 52-51 with under a min and did not score again and neither did NT really till a final dunk, so I am not going to give a lot of credit for that road win, lean to McNeese st -3 -125
McNeese st -3 -125
and am going to go ahead and add Howard +4.5 -120 get the extra half pt
also going to go with Colgate +13 like how they played at Syracuse only losing by 2 72-74, only thing I do not like is that this is their 3rd str road game, But NC st did only beat Presbyterian by 9, and Coastal Car by 8 I think Colgate will hang around withing 10
Colgate +13
