North Texas and Florida Atlantic both roll into Thursday at 5-2, and the market has already made its call. The Mean Green are -14 with a moneyline of -550, and the market probability with the margin removed sits at North Texas 81%, Florida Atlantic 19%. That's a big number for a conference game between two teams with identical records, which is exactly why it's worth a second look.
North Texas has the résumé the number is built on. The Mean Green are 3-0 at home and riding a 4-game win streak, and they're scoring 43.1 points per game while allowing 30.6. That's a team that turns home games into track meets, and the market has noticed.
Florida Atlantic has its own argument. The Owls have won five of their last six and are scoring 37.3 points per game. The catch is the road: FAU is 1-2 away from home and allowing 34.0 per game. The Owls can score with anyone, but they haven't been able to keep opposing offenses off the board, and that's the tension in this line.
The number has moved since opening, and it's moved in one direction. The spread went from -13.5 to -14, the total jumped from 73 to 77, and the moneyline went from -496 to -550. That's sharp money on North Texas and on the over, and the books have adjusted. If you're on the favorite, -14 (-105) at Bovada is the best price on the board. If you want the dog, +14 (-110) at MyBookie.ag is the best you'll find. On the moneyline, North Texas -525 at BetOnline.ag and Florida Atlantic +410 at BetAnything are the top numbers. The total sits at 77, with Over -110 and Under -110 at BetAnything.
