UConn +2 O/U 44.5

+2 is essentially a tie. I'm betting the over. Well I would but I'm not.

I was golfing with some buddies on Saturday and we were watching early games and talking bets. One of my friends asked about the UConn/Duke game and I said I need to see how UConn plays against Duke before I have any confidence bettting them ATS. I did say he could lock in the over at 46.5.

I never bet my teams as a favorite ATS. I can't stand the thought of my team winning but not enjoying the win because they didn't win by enough.

All that being said, I think UConn wins but I would take the over on this one at 46.5. UConn scores more points than they did last week but FAU will score less than Duke.

This board needs someone to do a scouting report on the opponent…the way that @Hey Adrien! does for the hoops team.

I don't think we have those types of guys. I wrote last year that i wish somebody could compile an injury report for our guys each week as well so we didn't have to rely on a patchwork of message board posts.

The Florida Atlantic University (FAU) Owls football team has had a mixed start to the 2024 season, currently holding a 1-2 record. Here's a scouting report based on their key strengths and weaknesses:

### Offense

• Rushing Attack: FAU has shown strength in the ground game, averaging 144.3 rushing yards per game, with their offensive line helping to generate solid gains on the ground. In their most recent win over FIU, they racked up 259 rushing yards at 5.0 yards per carry oai_citation:9,Florida Atlantic Owls vs Connecticut Huskies Prediction, 9/21/2024 College Football Picks, Best Bets & Odds. The Owls rely on a balanced offense, with a combination of power runs and short passes to control the clock.
• Passing Game: FAU has only managed 2 passing touchdowns so far, struggling somewhat in the air. Quarterback play has been inconsistent, with key turnovers limiting their ability to capitalize on offensive drives. FAU has committed 3 turnovers this season, hampering their overall effectiveness oai_citation:8,Florida Atlantic Owls vs Connecticut Huskies Prediction, 9/21/2024 College Football Picks, Best Bets & Odds.
• Key Playmakers: The offense relies heavily on their running backs, while the passing game looks for big plays to keep defenses off balance. Their offensive production stands at 18.3 points per game, meaning they have struggled to consistently put up points oai_citation:7,Florida Atlantic Owls vs Connecticut Huskies Prediction, 9/21/2024 College Football Picks, Best Bets & Odds.

### Defense

• Run Defense: The Owls’ defense has been vulnerable against the run, allowing 223.7 rushing yards per game, which ranks near the bottom of Division I teams. This weakness could be exploited by opponents with strong ground games oai_citation:6,Florida Atlantic Owls vs Connecticut Huskies Prediction, 9/21/2024 College Football Picks, Best Bets & Odds oai_citation:5,2024 UConn Football Prediction & Preview With Betting Odds & Schedule - HERO Sports.
• Pass Defense: On the positive side, their pass defense has been relatively effective, allowing just 146.3 passing yards per game. FAU ranks 37th in college football in passing yards allowed, showing that their secondary can limit big plays oai_citation:4,Florida Atlantic Owls vs Connecticut Huskies Prediction, 9/21/2024 College Football Picks, Best Bets & Odds oai_citation:3,2024 UConn Football Prediction & Preview With Betting Odds & Schedule - HERO Sports.
• Turnover Struggles: FAU’s defense has struggled to force turnovers, and they need to improve their ability to create takeaways to help out their offense oai_citation:2,2024 UConn Football Prediction & Preview With Betting Odds & Schedule - HERO Sports.

### Special Teams & Discipline
- Penalties: FAU has struggled with discipline, committing 20 penalties for 154 yards through the first three games of the season. These mistakes often hurt their momentum and field position oai_citation:1,Florida Atlantic Owls vs Connecticut Huskies Prediction, 9/21/2024 College Football Picks, Best Bets & Odds.

### Outlook
FAU's offense has potential, particularly in the running game, but their defense’s weakness against the run and inconsistency on offense make them vulnerable. Their ability to control the pace of the game and improve defensively, especially in stopping the run, will be key to their success this season.

That’s a hell of a bar he sets….

Of course, if the team that played Duke last Saturday shows up to play FAU you would probably be right on the mark. But I am not convinced it will be the same team.
