south florida -13.5 UMASS - Lost in the battle of the Florida semi-titans, South Florida is sitting there after a bye week saying, "What are we, wood?". While everyone is raving about UCF, South Florida has quietly gone 4-0. They have beaten Elon by 20 (even though Elon is an FCS team, they are rated higher than UMASS), they beat Georgia Tech by 11, at Illinois by 6 and East Carolina by 7. All of these teams are at least a touchdown better than UMASS. South Florida is rated higher than BC, who beat UMASS by 34. South Florida is rated higher than Georgia Southern, who beat UMASS by 21. South Florida is rated higher than FIU, who beat UMASS by 39. South Florida is at least a touchdown better than Ohio, who beat UMASS by 16.
Against FBS competition, UMASS's defense is giving up an average 48 points per game. One would think that South Florida. South Florida will be the best of the 7 teams UMASS will have played this year...one would think that they will score more than 48 points. Will UMASS score 34 against the Bull defense that is only giving up 21 points per game? Who really thinks that who isn't on some kind of mushrooms?
Laying 13.5 points on da Bulls.....
