The bottom has fallen out of Houston's season after its upset loss to Navy and then after beating Tulsa, the Cougars were a 23.5-point favorite against SMU and lost 38-16. Houston rushed for 62 yards on 35 carries for a 1.8 average, whilr Greg Ward Jr. was 21-of-33 for 241 yards and two touchdowns, but it wasn't nearly enough as the Cougars' hopes for a playoff berth have vanished. Houston's defense, however, still is #13 in the country in total yards allowed and #29 in points allowed at 21.4 per game. Central Florida is #40 on defense, allowing 23.7 points per contest and #36 in total yards allowed. The Knights have gone UNDER their last two games, including a 24-16 win at Connecticut last week. Also, UCF has stayed UNDER in four of its last five conference games and Houston is 5-2 UNDER after an ATS loss. The Houston offense no longer scares opposing defenses, so play this game to stay UNDER the total.
