BYU at Central Florida

October 26, 2024
img3:30 PM Eastern

BYU is 7-0 after defeating Oklahoma State 38-35 and that is the most points the Cougars have allowed this season. The previous six opponents had scored just 16.3 points per game. The Cougars are #26 in the country allowing 19.0 points and #25 in pass defense. Central Florida won its first three games and then lost its next four as the offense stalled in losses against Colorado, Florida and Cincinnati when the Knights averaged just 15.7 points before a 38-35 defeat at Iowa State last week. The Knights had only 62 passing yards against the Cyclones and ran it 39 times for 354 yards. QB Jacurri Brown was just 8-of-20 with no TDs and two interceptions for the Knights. They will try to keep it on the ground again against the Cougars while using a lot of the clock. Take the UNDER.

And college football games where the total is 70+ go 62-32 UNDER between teams that commit 1.25 or fewer turnovers per game. Take Central Florida/BYU UNDER the total.

Central Florida at BYU

September 23, 2011
img8:00 PM Eastern

Central Florida is a off an upset loss at Florida International and after that, no one wants a piece. But in that game, they outgained FIU by 62 yards. They simply turned the ball over twice while FIU did not. So let's not overreact, especially considering that UCF won their first two games by a combined score of 92-3! BYU delivered an impressive win last week (again leading to line value on UCF here), but they are 1-2 on the season. Over the past three seasons, the Knights are 9-1 ATS vs. losing teams and 10-2 ATS in road games. I like the road team with the points here.
