UTEP at Western Kentucky

Western Kentucky has some issues. Their last four games have not been pretty as they have managed just a single win vs. Old Dominion. Old Dominion has allowed 41 points or more in six straight games, and Western Kentucky needed most of the 66 points they scored in that one to get the win 66-51. This is a team that has given up 500 yards or more in each of their last four games, and have allowed just shy of 50 ppg. There comes a point in time when you have to stop someone but the Hilltoppers just haven't been able to do it. Last week their offense couldn't get it going and they went down 59-10. UTEP has made great strides and have won three straight games, and in the process they have out-scored their opponents 111-49. The take here is they obviously can score, and will score a lot against Western Kentucky, but they have also allowed just 16.3 ppg in their last three so they certainly have a shot at getting a few more stops here. The Hilltoppers are just 1-6 ATS after allowing 280 passing yards in their previous game, which has become the norm, allowing over an average of 350 yards per game in their last four.
