College Football Betting Trends
UCF
UCF has hit the over in four straight game sin November and in seven of their last 10 home games.
Navy
Navy has hit the under in eight of their last 11 road games and in 21 of their last 31 games following a loss.
Prediction:
Central Florida is going to score, that much is sure. The Knights have scored at least 31 points in every game this season. The question is, how much can they score and how much will they give up. Navy has really struggled to stop good offensive teams lately, allowing at least 40 in their last three games. UCF should fit in that mold. The Knights aren’t a dominant defense team either, so Navy may be able to get out of their offensive funk. I look for the Knights to put up close to 50 points in this game, so the Midshipmen don’t have to do much to hit the over.
