AMEDEUS' CBB AAC GAME OF THE MONTH!
(NCAAB) North Texas vs. Florida Atlantic,
Point Spread: 5.50 | -105.00 North Texas (Away)
Result: Loss
North Texas is coming into this game with an 18-13 record this season and they are 10-8 in the conference. They are coming off of a 10 point win against Tulane in the last round and they have also been playing very well in their recent games. They have won their last 2 straight as well as 4 of their last 5 games with their only loss in that span coming by 4 points against FAU who is one of the better teams in the conference. They are going up against an FAU team that is 24-7 this season and 14-4 in the conference, but they have not been as dominant as they were last season in the Conference USA. This was their 1st season in the AAC and they only finished in 2nd place this year. They have been playing well in their recent games as they have won their last 3 straight as well as 4 of their last 5 games, but they have not been blowing out teams in dominant wins either. North Texas is also a team they have struggled against going back to last season. FAU beat North Texas in both meetings this season, but both of their wins were by 4 points or less. The same goes for last season as these two were both in the Conference USA together last year and once again, FAU won both games against North Texas but only by 4 points or less. North Texas knows how to play this FAU team going all the way back to last season when FAU was much better and they are going to have the extra incentive here of wanting to beat FAU after 4 straight close losses to them in the last 2 seasons. North Texas will cover the spread in this game.
