UCF

UCF enters this game off an impressive 75-50 road beat down of Tulane easily covering the -11.5 closing line. The point spread win broke off a three-game losing streak versus the line and improved their overall record in their last nine games to 9-1 straight up and 4-5-1 ATS.

MEMPHIS

Memphis is coming off of 85-76 road loss to Temple failing to cover the -5 point line. The defeat broke off a mini three-game run bringing their straight-up record to 7-3 over their last ten games. Against the spread the Tigers have been burning their backers’ money dropping four of their last five contests against the line.

Head to Head

This will be the first meeting between these clubs this season. Last season UCF won both matches winning on the road 68-64 and at home 65-56. The two victories extended Central Florida’s win streak in this series to four games and their ATS run to five games. For what it is worth, these two squads have a 7-3 mark over their last 10 versus the O/U line but 3-3 in the six meetings.
