Florida International is excited to be playing in its first bowl game in six years, and the Panthers are peaking, having won and covered their final four regular-season games while averaging 43.3 points. They routed Sam Houston State 56-16 on Nov. 29 while racking up 594 total yards of offense, including 303 on the ground. Keyone Jenkins threw for 291 yards and three TDs, and he is expected to play in this game after recovering from a groin injury. FIU is 5-0 ATS after totaling more than 450 yards in its previous game, and the Panthers are 4-0 ATS after allowing fewer than 170 yards passing. The First Responder Bowl will be played at SMU's home field, and UTSA is 1-7-1 ATS in its past nine games on FieldTurf. The Roadrunners will be missing at least six defensive players due to the transfer portal. Florida International features running Kejon Owens, the Conference USA Player of the Year, who rushed for 1,298 yards on 6.3 per carry with 11 TDs. The Panthers are 8-3 ATS in their past 11 games as underdogs. UTSA has allowed 55 points twice this season to North Texas and South Florida. Take Florida International ATS and on the moneyline.

Texas-San Antonio at Florida International
7:00 PM Eastern
Texas-San Antonio has stayed UNDER three games in a row, including its 31-14 win over UTEP, which had no passing game to speak of as Zack Greenlee was 8-of-29 for 133 yards and no touchdowns with two interceptions. UTSA's underrated defense is #14 in the country allowing only 294.7 yards and 17.4 points per game. Florida International gives up 26.3 points per contest and the Golden Panthers are 3-2-1 UNDER their last six games. The Roadrunners rushed 42 times against the Miners and will likely keep it on the ground again using a lot of clock as they are #25 with 219.9 rushing yards per game. UTSA has gone UNDER four of its last five road games and seven of its last 10 overall. Florida International beat Marshall 41-30 on Saturday, but the Panthers have stayed UNDER five of their last seven after scoring at least 40 points their previous game. FIU has scored more than 23 points just twice this season. Take the UNDER.
