Connecticut at Missouri

The UConn Huskies football program has been very poor since the departure of coach Randy Edsel to Maryland. Bob Diaco is now in his second year, and trouble continues to lurk, as the Huskies offense just doesn't look very good. They narrowly escaped vs. Villanova at home by 5 points and duplicated the 5-point win at home vs. an Army team that had allowed 33 points or more to just about every road opponent the past few years, and the Huskies managed just 22. The Huskies have topped the 22-point mark just one time in their last 14 games, and Missouri is a rather large step up in class as opposed to most of those opponents. Missouri has allowed 23 points in two games, and finished last season holding their last three SEC opponents at home to 14 points or less. UConn will struggle to find the scoreboard, while the Tigers are 11-6-1 ATS scoring an average of 39.2 points per game in their last 18 vs. non conference opponents. Play on Missouri.
