Troy St./N. Texas

Tommy · 10-04-05, 09:05 AM

North Texas lost its last two games by combined score of 108-9; they're in Sun Belt now, though, where they've not lost a game (loss to Troy last year was a non-league game) Home side won both series meetings, with Troy winning last year, 18-16, as 6-point favorite, but losing two years ago, 21-0, as 10-point dog. North Texas has covered 11 of last 13 conference home games, and 13 of last 17 as a home favorite. Troy lost its last three in row by combined score of 124-48; they had minus-10 turnover ratio, with no takeaways in those losses. Not a lot to choose from in this Tuesday night TV game.

Stay away, not a good game to put hard earned money on!!! A lot of better games this week. IMO no real advantages for both teams. A bookies dream game. 2 teams off the map playing like crap. If anything I think its a little weird that given the stance of North Texas conference record, two nationally recognized RB's, homefield advantage, and more $$$ coming on them, that the line opened up low dropped and leveled off. If I was just capping % and linemovement, I would play Troy +2. But not enough for me to make a play. If I hear or find out anything else I will post. Good luck whatever you decide.

Yea Tommy, I am leaning towards N. Texas & the OVER also!! Not gonna put much on the game either way. BTW, Troy is the worst team N. Texas has faced this year and @ Home and looking to even their record at 2-2 before a 3 game stretch @ FLA-INT, La Tech and LSU. I have them in a 4 team parlay with the W. Sox/OVER (a winner) and the Angels/OVER. BOL!!
