SMU is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 conference games and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The under is 4-0 in SMU’s last 4 road games. UCF is 6-18 ATS in their last 24 conference games and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. The under is 5-1 in UCF’s last 6 games. The home team is 8-0-1 ATS in these two teams last 9 head to head meetings.

SMU nearly fought back against TCU, but came up just shy in their comeback attempt. UCF struggled with Georgia Tech for a few quarters before finally pulling away. SMU does not have much of a defense, so the UCF offense should have a big day. I think this game will be similar to the SMU/TCU game last week. I like the over here.
