Memphis is in first place in the American Conference, winning four in a row behind a powerhouse defense that is #8 in the country in points allowed (17.5 points per game). Bobby McCain and Dontrell Nelson each had interception returns for touchdowns to help Memphis beat Tulane 38-7 on Saturday. Memphis forced a season-high five turnovers. The Tigers are home and are 5-2-1 ATS on fieldturf, plus 9-2-1 ATS in their last 12 games in November. They are peaking at the right time and face a bad South Florida team that has lost four of six. This is one of the worst offenses in the nation, scoring 18.6 ppg (#120). The Bulls are 5-15-1 ATS in November and 6-15 ATS after scoring less than 20 points in their previous game. The South Florida offense has scored 10, 17, 17, 3 and 14 points in four of the last five games. This is the fourth road game in five weeks for South Florida, so look for a one-sided win by the home team.
