Johnny Dawkins is doing an excellent job in his first season with Central Florida. That rings particularly true on the defensive side, as the Knights are holding opponents to just a .311 field goal percentage after being one of the worst defensive teams in the country over the last couple years. The Knights are 7-2, including a road win at Massachusetts and are led by 7-6, 300 pound center Tacko Fall, who averages 13.8 points and 13.1 rebounds per contest. Fall and Matt Williams scored 17 points apiece as the Knights fell to Penn on Monday. George Washington is 7-4 stright-up, but only 2-6 ATS while shooting just 40.3 percent from the field. The Colonials come off a win over Howard in an unlined game as Jaren Sina scored 20 points and Tyler Cavanaugh added 13 points and 13 boards. UCF has covered four of its last five as an underdog and George Washington is 0-6 ATS over its last six home games and 0-4 ATS after a win. Take the points on Central Florida.
