Welcome back sports fans! For years, the MAC has treated us to November Tuesday and Wednesday night football. Not only do we get football (pro and/or college) every day of the month, but we get to focus on the Mighty Mac. These kids, who normally are on ESPN+ with the premiere weekly matchup on ESPNU, get to play to national audiences with no competition from the Big Ten or SEC, etc. But that’s in November, so why am I talking about it now? Because last season, Conference USA decided to adopt the MACNation approach in October. This week, the first game is on Wednesday, but starting next week, games will begin on Tuesday. Starting tonight, the next day without some sort of football on TV is Wednesday, November 26 – 49 days from now! So, hat’s off to Conference USA and the MAC for giving us a chance to enjoy the game we love every day.
…..
Of the four CUSA games tonight and tomorrow, the best game is between two teams undefeated in conference play when LA Tech (4-1/37) invades the hoots of the Kennesaw St Owls (3-2/85) Thursday at 7:00 (all times Eastern) on ESPNU. LATC has only given up 68 points this year, making them the 12th best defense according the GCR’s metric: DER (Defensive Efficiency Rating). That means they only give up 6.8 points for every 10.0 points their opponents score on average. Very formidable. KNST’s OER (Offensive Efficiency Rating) is below average at 87 (161st) meaning they only score 8.7 points for every 10.0 points their opponents allow on average. I’ve been to a Kennesaw St game and it’s a wonderful place to watch a game. When they make a first down, the announcer says, “and that’s another,” – insert marching band flourish – “KSU first down! – hoo.” The soft owl sound after all of that is interesting, but when the team I was pulling for (Presbyterian when they were both in the Big South) is down 42-0 at the half, the “hoos” became annoying. I don’t think they will have a lot to hoot about offensively tomorrow night, however, although it is a very difficult place to play on the road. Vegas has LATC-5.5 and the GCR agrees LATC 60% and to cover.
…..
The best Friday game is South Florida (4-1/48), whose only loss was at Miami FL (5-0/5), faces a very strong North Texas (5-0/25) team in Denton, TX with a 7:30 kickoff on ESPN2. Both of these teams are offense minded. The Bulls have an OER of 148 (29th) and will face a mediocre NTEX DER of 112 (107th). When the Mean Green are driving, they bring an elite OER of 169 (10th) vs a SFLA DER of 124 (77th). The over for this game is a whopping 67.5 and I can understand why. This game could come down to who has the ball last. Vegas sees it that way with NTEX-1.5 at home. The GCR agrees but sees the Mean Green scoring a lot – NTEX to win 65% of the time and to cover.
…..
There is a double-header at the noon hour on Saturday for the split-screen-capable folks. Alabama (4-1/17) is at Missouri (5-0/24). On paper, Alabama has proven themselves the most to date, but Faurot Field adds a few points for the Tigers every game. Vegas has ALA-2.5, but the GCR sees a Vegas upset here with MIZZ winning 62% of the time. Watch it on ABC. The paired game is Ohio St (5-0/2) at Illinois (5-1/7). Similar scenario although Memorial Stadium doesn’t have the same fear factor. Illinois has looked really good this year except for the WTH loss to Indiana (5-0/1) 63-10. They did come back the next week and upset Southern Cal (4-1/9) 34-32, also in Champaign. Vegas sees the Buckeyes running away with this one -14.5, and the GCR does see them as winning 57% of the time. The GCR percent gives an anticipated point spread – simply take the number and subtract 50%. In this case, the GCR sees OHST winning by 7 points. ILL will lose, but they will cover. Watch this one on Fox.
…..
Staying in the Big Ten for the mid-afternoon game (3:30) with Indiana (5-0/1) heading west to tackle Oregon (5-0/4) in the game of the week, which can be seen on CBS. When the Hoosiers have the ball, they bring the country’s best OER of 194 (1st) – 63 on Illinois helped that a lot – and will face an Oregon DER of 210 (7th). This is the very definition of strength on strength. But wait, there’s more. A Ducks OER of 188 (2nd) will face an IND DER of 307 (3rd). Again, the epitome of a great matchup. The best two offenses vs two top 7 defenses. Vegas likes ORE at home -7.5. The last two GCR #1 teams to play (Indiana was bye last week but held the position) were NC St and Southern Cal – both of whom lost from the spot. The GCR thinks it will happen again with ORE winning 56% which is just a field goal above home field advantage. We do calculate that Indiana will cover, but Cinderella may be dropping a shoe on the way out of Eugene.
…..
Our night game, at 8:00 on ESPN2 pits BYU (5-0/13) at Arizona (4-1/36). Both of these teams have average to above average offenses, but their defenses have helped them win games. Compare the over of 48.0 points to the South Florida/North Texas game above. Vegas has BYU winning a close one in Tucson -1.5, and the GCR agrees 60% and to cover.
