Over 58.5 Total Points (-110)

Odds available at BetMGM at time of publishing

In the game between UNLV Rebels and Memphis Tigers, we're looking at a total points bet of over 58.5. Both teams have strong offenses that can score quickly, which makes it exciting to watch. Memphis is known for putting up big numbers, and while UNLV's defense has improved, they might struggle to stop the Tigers. Our numbers suggest a good chance for this bet, as we expect the combined score to be around 65.6. Just remember, anything can happen in football, so while this pick looks promising, there's no guarantee it will hit. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.09 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model likes this one a lot. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.

Memphis Tigers +6 on the Line (-110)

In this college football game, the UNLV Rebels are up against the Memphis Tigers. Memphis is favored to win by 6 points, but our numbers say it's almost a toss-up. UNLV has been playing tough at home, and they could keep this game close. Memphis has a solid offense, but UNLV's defense might surprise them. Betting on Memphis to cover the spread is a bit risky, but if they play well, they could pull it off. Just keep in mind that anything can happen in college football, so this bet is not a sure thing. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.09 if it lands. The number next to the team is the handicap, and that team's score is adjusted by it before the bet is settled. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.

I like the Memphis Tigers to win against the UNLV Rebels. Memphis has been showing some solid offense, and they can score quickly. UNLV's defense has struggled at times, which could give Memphis a good chance to take control of the game. While Memphis is the underdog here, our numbers say they have a real shot to pull off the upset. It won't be easy, but if they play their best, they could definitely come out on top. Just remember, anything can happen in football! It was priced at +188 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $28.80 if it lands. This one is priced as an outside chance. Our model has this as a long shot, so keep the stake small. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.

That is how our model reads UNLV Rebels v Memphis Tigers. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back anything. And if a game does not feel right to you, the strongest move is to skip it -- there is another one tomorrow.
