Marshall at Houston

The Houston Cougars are riding the experienced arm of Case Keenum who has been in the program for six years. He is highly accurate at 71.4% and with the Herd allowing 69% completions on the road, look out below! Houston has dominated with Keenum calling the signals as they’re now 17-0 at home with him under center, scoring 38 or more points in every single game vs. non-BCS conference opponents. The margin of victory in those games is worth noting at 816-306 or by an average score of 48-18 (a margin of 30 points per game). The 15 home games vs. non-BCS Conference teams show the Cougars winning 13 of them by 23 points or more. Marshall has amassed all of 43 points in four road games on the season, and when you consider that the offense has scored just three times, this one could get out of hand early. Houston is 11-2 ATS as a home favorite under head coach Kevin Sumlin. The Cougars are ranked No. 19 in the BCS polls and won't be afraid to lay it on in this one to try to move up. Take Houston in a blowout.
