Money line (ML)

UCF (-176) is a decent play on the money line at this price, especially since it’s laying a risky three and a hook against the spread. The Knights haven’t lost back-to-back games since dropping the final two regular-season contests and their bowl outing to close out the 2016-17 season. Bank on UCF.

Against the spread (ATS)

MEMPHIS +3.5 (-110) is worth a roll of the dice as long as this line sticks at three and a hook. The Tigers have yet to cash against the number so far this season, but they are 4-0 ATS in their past four home games against their rivals from Central Florida. The home team is also 12-1 ATS in the previous 13 head-to-head meetings.

Over/Under (O/U)

The Under connected last week for the Knights, and UNDER 75 (-110) is the play in this one. The Tigers have cashed the Under in each of their two games, totaling 61 points against Arkansas State against an Over/Under of 72, and totaling 57 last week vs. SMU with a projection of 75.5. This one might not be confused for a defensive slugfest, but it will not go Over the number.
