North Texas Tips and Predictions in Memphis

forecast

Memphis 37, North Texas 24

Money line

HAPPEN.

There is no value here. The Tigers should emerge victorious, especially considering how the Mean Green have performed in highly competitive away games. However, Memphis is far too expensive to travel here.

Against the spread

BET MEMPHIS -11.5 (-110).

The Tigers are 3-1 ATS as double-digit favorites and 2-1 ATS at home this season. They have scored 38 or more points in 3 games this season, but it is their defense that has impressed, scoring a total of 10 points in the last 2 games and holding opponents to 17 or fewer in 5 of 6 games.

The Mean Green have played 3 road games and allowed 37, 66 and 38. They are just 1-2 ATS in those games. North Texas has consistently given up too many points in away games, and that should cause problems against a solid defense like Memphis.

Take these trends into account MEMPHIS -11.5 (-110).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 68.5 (-115).

This is a story with two stories. Memphis is 1-5 O/U while North Texas is 5-1 O/U. At home, Memphis has allowed 0, 17 and 7. The defense has performed consistently well, even holding power 5-side FSU to 12.

North Texas scored just 21 points in its final Power 5 contest this season. The Mean Green have allowed 20 or fewer in 2 of their last 3 and 3 of their last 5. With that in mind and considering how high the total is, back UNDER 68.5 (-115).
