Rice at UTEP

The UTEP Miners have won four of their last five to climb to the .500 mark for the season. The Miners have put the squeeze on opponents at the defensive end which has made a huge difference in this team. The Miners last six opponents have failed to score more than 63 points in regulation minutes, with the average a skimpy 56.8ppg. The Rice Owls have had plenty of offensive problems of late, which has left this team searching for answers as they have scored 56 or less in three of their last four contests. Those numbers have trailed them on the road for a longtime facing a team with a winning homne record as they have played to a 37-18-1 mark to the UNDER vs. a team with a home winning percentage of better than .600. Play this one UNDER the total.
