UTEP at Central Florida

Premium Pick

These two teams have not faced each other in recent history and it will be quite an interesting game to watch. These two teams have slightly different styles of play, as UTEP enjoys lower scoring basketball games with fewer shots and in more of a half-court type game, while Central Florida does not mind pushing the ball up the court and playing more of a fast paced transition type basketball game. It is more likely that the home team will be able to dictate the pace of play and there is no reason C. Florida can't do that here today. In the last 5 games played by each of these two teams, C. Florida has scored 8ppg more than UTEP. This may be because C. Florida has had more rebounds per game and also shot 36% from 3-point range compared to the horrible 29% UTEP has shot. Central Florida has also covered 3 of their last 4 home games. Take the points and watch the home team go 4-1 ATS in their most recent 5. Two stars on Central Florida.
