Central Florida at BYU

The BYU Cougars are ranked 23rd in the country as they host Central Florida. Central Florida is a very good team at 19-7 on the season. I'm surprised to see this line in double-digits. Central Florida owns some big wins, knocking off Texas Tech, Kansas, and losing by just seven to Arizona. This is a team that seems to rise to the occasion. BYU went through a difficult time, losing five of six games. They have bounced back, going 3-1, with the only loss coming by just seven points to Arizona. I think this is a lot closer than it looks. Make the play on Central Florida.
