Texas-Arlington vs Rhode Island Prediction
The UT Arlington Mavericks hung around with USC and nearly pulled an upset, but outside of that, they haven’t performed well when stepping up in competition. The Rhode Island Rams haven’t had the toughest schedule in the world, but they’re rolling on both sides of the ball and have been one of the best offenses in the country up to this point. If the forms hold true, this has the potential to get ugly for the UT Arlington Mavericks. Give me Rhode Island in a double-digit victory.
