Game Analysis
Rice (+1.5) 29 SOUTHERN MISS 26
Southern Miss is down to their 3rd head coach of the season, as interim coach Scotty Walden quit to take the head coaching job at Austin Peay. How’s that for a slap in the face? Rice didn’t perform as well as I thought they would in last week’s double-overtime loss to Middle Tennessee, as I thought the Owls’ pass defense would be better than the 8.8 yards per pass play they allowed last week. However, I still think that Rice will beat a Southern Miss team that has been 2.1 yards per play worse than average from the line of scrimmage (-0.7 yppl on offense and -1.4 yppl on defense). Plus, Southern Miss applies to a very negative 54-146-3 ATS situation. The under, meanwhile, applies to a 246-186-5 Under situation and my ratings liked the under anyway.
