| Jeff Scott Sports 3 UNIT PLAY Rutgers/ South Florida Under 46: I like the Under in this one. The Rutgers offense has been poor so far as they have scored just 2 offenses TD’s in their first 2 games. They are having problems throwing the ball coming in averaging just 144 ypg through the air so far. This is a team that really plays ball control offense with their run game (179 ypg on the ground) and then relies on their defense to win games. Defense has been a staple of this Rutgers team as they have allowed 19 ppg or less in 3 of their last 4 years, and this year is starting out in the same fashion. Rutgers comes in allowing just 205 ypg and 3.3 yards per play so for o the year, while allowing just 12 total points in their 1st two games. I know it’s vs Tulane and Howard, but still dating back to last year they have now allowed less than 20 points in 8 of their last 11 games. USF had their problems on defense last week vs Nevada, but this Rutgers offense is no where even close to the offense the Bulls saw last week. The Bulls defense has 7 starters back from last year and should bounce back with a good showing in this one. The Bulls offense is solid, but they are not going up against weak defenses like they have the last two weeks and I don’t just see them going up and down the field in this one. Rutgers will make them take time consuming drives, while they will go on their own time consuming drives as well. I look for this one to be in the mid 30’s at best. |
