Love Nevada and I think a lot of points get scored tonight as both teams have balanced offenses and are int he top 15 in scoring points. Souther Miss coach Larry Fedora is headed to North Carolina but oddly enough administration is letting him stay to caoch I don't know where his motivation is for this game nor do I know what it is for the team after they upset Houston in the Conference Championship, but look for it to have an impact on this game.
First do not sleep on a WAC team as LA Tech nearly upset both Houston and Smiss losing by a combined 3 points and Nevada had a 20-3 lead over LA Tech in the 4th quarter before losing 24-20. I think Nevada's offense is more explosive and is converting 49.14 % on 3rd down while Smiss is at 43.5% both teams are the same defensively on 3rd down and Smiss gets much worse on the road 46%. Red Zone action, both teams have gotten there 55 times this year and Nevada 60% of the time turns them into TD's while Smiss 54.5%. Also Nevada is allowing 9 fewer attempts by opponents into the red zone. Game will be played on turf and Smiss is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 on turf while Nevada is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 as dogs.
