10* THURSDAY NIGHT GAME OF THE WEEK > > DUAL "GOWs" THURSDAY!
(NCAAF) FAU vs. Southern Miss,
Point Spread: 8.50 | -110.00 Southern Miss (Home)
Result: Win
This one sets up well for Southern Miss, who I think will easily cover with the large spread it's been afforded here. FAU is for sure the better team, but this is its final game of the year and after last week's 20-3 loss to Georgia Southern, I can't see the visiting side coming here very motivated. Southern Mississippi has had its last two games canceled due to covid issues, but three weeks ago it lost 23-20 in a competitive setback to UTSA. It's senior night for Southern Miss as well and that's an important motivational factor we can exploit here as well. I won't be so bold as to call for the outright upset, but the stage is definitely set for a real nail-biter on Thursday night; grab the points!
