North Florida Ospreys vs. Dayton Flyers Prediction
I’m on North Florida here. The Ospreys have been a sieve defensively and have gotten crushed by some of the elite teams they’ve gone up against, and I do think that Dayton wins this game rather comfortably. However, the Flyers aren’t normally a team that blows opposing teams out of the water, and this is a sandwich spot for Dayton off of the loss to Virginia with a road game against Florida State on deck. I think Dayton wins but this line’s a little too thick. Give me the points with North Florida here.
