Stephen Nover's 10-Dime Over/Under Destroyer
(NCAAF) Southern Miss vs. North Texas, 10/18/2014 3:00 PM, Score: 30 - 20
Total: 56.00 | -110.00 Under
Result: Loss
Any time I see a total of less than 60 in a Conference USA game, I think over the total. I especially like this Conference USA matchup to go over.


North Texas is a strong running team. Southern Mississppi ranks 120th in run defense. The Mean Green are averaging more than 32 points per game while surrendering more than 30 a game. North Texas gave up 42 points to Louisiana Tech and 56 to UAB in earlier Conference USA matchups.


Southern Mississippi hasn't been much better on defense against Conference USA foes yielding 41 points to Rice and 37 to Middle Tennessee.


Last year, North Texas put up 55 points on Southern Mississippi. The key is if the Golden Eagles will contribute their share of points to pushing this total over. I believe they will.


Golden Eagles QB Nick Mullens is off his best game. He was 36-of-54 for 426 yards and three touchdowns on the road against Middle Tennessee.


The over has cashed in 16 of Southern Mississippi's last 21 road games.
