North Texas at Middle Tennessee State

The Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders have a signature win over Georgia Tech that is holding the number down here. But, Tech is simply not a good team this year, and they caught a bad team on an off day where they turned the ball over four times. The other three wins for MTSU came vs. Florida Atlantic, Florida International and Memphis. Those teams have combined to go 3-19 on the season, so this team stands up to a propped-up record of 4-3, when in fact they are a rebuilding bad team. North Texas has suffered half their losses to LSU and Kansas State. They did so fairly respectably, losing by a combined 41 points to cover with ease. They certainly stand a good chance to not only be competitive here, but to win the game. The Blue Raiders have been dreadful at home where they are 1-8 ATS in their last nine in this building. And under head coach Rick Stockstill, this team is just 2-9 ATS at home following a road loss. We have a live dog in this one, so play on North Texas. Take them at -3.5 with a little extra juice if you can, or +3 with low-juice if you can't.
