Tulsa vs Florida Atlantic Prediction

Tulsa is playing the better ball and has the offense to bury teams that aren’t ready to run or shoot efficiently. Tulsa also has 5 road wins this season. The line is probably accurate. The problem is this is mostly a must-win for FAU to stop the bleeding and get its confidence back. Three straight losses; FAU is better than what it’s shown lately. FAU isn’t this bad defensively. The Owls also have the offense to hang, and they are usually a tough out at home. We saw FAU go into UAB and leave with a victory just a month ago. This is a decent team. Give me the bucket.

Randy Chambers's Pick: FAU +2.5
