YTD: 42-43-3

Yay it’s football night again and we have 2 to look at.

SHSU (5-2-0) -5 & 47 vs FIU (2-5-0)

UTEP (1-6-0) vs LT (2-4-0) -6 & 48.5

Let’s get the first one out of the way.  When I made my plays earlier today I had a bit of trouble checking on the starting line ups for this game.  So I made my decisions based on Both sides were to be without their staring QBs since SHSU listed theirs as questionable Concussion and FIU listed both of theirs questionable.  

Both Teams are doing well with ATS Records, SHSU 5-2 and FIU 4-3.

To be clear IMO SHSU is better on both sides of the ball and still remains 1 win shy of being Bowl Eligible but need to accomplish it on the Road since they failed at home last week.

Based on what I see and as of this write up I fully support my Play.

Playing;

SHSU OVER 47

Next game will be posted in a bit. 

BOLTA on the 1st game.

Thoughts for Game 2…

Louisiana plays Host tonight to our 2nd game on the schedule.  These two teams have played before with LT holding a dominant SU record of 9-1-0, however, the ATS holds no advantage for either team sitting at 5-5.

These Teams have one Common Opponent in FIU.   UTEP Beat FIU by 9 in a 30-21 win last game out.  Tonight’s -6 Fav LT lost to that same FIU Team by 7 with FIU Beating LT 17-10.  

After seeing this potential anomaly of UTEP Beating FIU, which is there only win of the season I wanted to explore deeper and I saw what I feel could be significant.  So far this season UTEPS OPPs have a 26-14-0 record whereas LT OPPs come in at 12-24-0.  To me this explains the difference between both teams showing vs FIU.

Playing; 

UTEP +6

Good Luck All.
