FIU vs UConn Prediction
FIU has a couple of wins but getting blown out by Delaware doesn’t inspire much confidence. It’s a reminder that FIU isn’t a good football program, and I have no trust at all in this defense on the road. UConn has defensive issues of its own, but this program has improved drastically in terms of talent and the offense is above average across the board. FIU has covered 8 of its last 10 games as an underdog, but there’s a serious talent gap between these teams. Give me UCONN by double digits.
