Central Florida at Tulane

The teams met just three weeks ago and Central Florida won 38-31, but you can expect a more defensive battle in the American Athletic Conference championship game. The Knights rushed for 336 yards on 54 carries led by 176 by quarterback John Rhys Plumlee in the first meeting. The Green Wave ran 27 times for 155 yards, including 130 by Tyjae Spears. Tulane has been a remarkable story as it is 10-2 after finishing 2-10 last season and the defense has been somewhat underrated as it is holding opponents 59 yards below their season average. Also, the Green Wave is tops in the conference in scoring defense and UCF ranks third. Tulane can follow Navy's blueprint in defending the run as Central Florida managed only 14 points against the Midshipmen on Nov. 19. UCF is 7-3 UNDER following a win and 4-1 UNDER its past five games after scoring at least 40 points its previous game. Take the UNDER as a Max Play.
