Troy +12.5 (-105)
South Alabama -12.5 (-115)
Over/Under 54.5

Best Bet: Kentrel Bullock Over 57.5 Rushing Yards (-114) BetOnline

Bullock is technically the 2nd string back for the Jaguars, behind Fluff Bothwell, but they've basically split carries all year long. Bothwell leads the team with 56 rushes, and Bullock has 53, but over the past couple of weeks, Bullock has been the go to guy for South Alabama.

Now, they also have a dual threat QB in Gio Lopez, but I trust Bullock to get the touches tonight, as Troy should take extra caution by spying on Lopez in the pocket. Last week, Bullock led the team with 66 rushing yards, and he out carried Bothwell 13-9. The week before at LSU, Bullock led the Jaguars rushers with 9 carries for 56 yards, with Bothwell only having 9 touches for 15 yards.

Tonight, South Alabama should dominate at home. They are 12 point favorites over 1-5 Troy for a reason, and should see plenty of ground work for both of their backs. Give me Bullock and Bothwell to both run for 60+ tonight against the Trojans.

Kennesaw State vs Middle Tennessee State Best Bets

MTSU takes on Kennesaw State tonight

Betting Odds

Kennesaw State +9 (-110)
MTSU -9 (-110)
Over/Under 50

To be completely honest with you, I want no part of this game. Memphis is 1-5, losing 5 straight and being outscored by an average of 29.8 points per contest in those losses. On the other side of things, Kennesaw State hasn't won once, and finally scored more than 1 touchdown in a game last week. I have no reason to even look at this crapshoot, and will be saving my money here.

Louisiana Tech vs New Mexico State Best Bets

Can the Bulldogs take down the Blue Raiders at home?

Jack Turner leads a mediocre Bulldogs offense at home tonight against MTSU

Betting Odds

Louisiana Tech -11 (-115)
New Mexico State +11 (-105)
Over/Under 49

Slight Lean: Louisiana Tech -11 (-115) BetOnline

I think the Bulldogs blow out the Aggies and handle business on the road, but I can't quite bring myself to put the coin down. They blew out MTSU at home 5 days ago, so it is a bit of a quick turn around. However, against a team like New Mexico State, it shouldn't be an issue. The Aggies are 1-5 this year, beating SEMO in Week 1, and giving up 30+ points in every single loss, including 48+ in 3 of those losses.

This could easily be a game that the Bulldogs run up the score, but at 30.5, their team total is a bit too inflated for my liking. I'll probably be kicking myself for not taking this when they win by two touchdowns, but I'll save my money for the rest of the week.
