UL Monroe vs Southern Miss Prediction
UL Monroe is a bad team on other sides of the ball, especially offensively where it’s 117th in total offense and 131st in scoring offense. UL Monroe is also 2-5 ATS on the season, so basically this club packs little to no betting value. Southern Miss is a slightly above average offense, so if things get rolling, I doubt UL Monroe has the horses to respond. Southern Miss has covered each of its last 6 games as a double-digit favorite, winning those games by an average of 29.6 points. I’ll lay the points with Southern Miss.
