WKU blew by South Florida in the 3rd quarter Two more games on tap today but first a look at yesterdays Mini Mega
Western Kentucky vs South Florida over 66.5 - This one looked a little dicey in the first half. With 3 seconds to go South Florida was leading 14-7. Both teams were playing bad. Missed wide open wide receivers, poor throws, penalties it was awful.
WKU Made a FG to end the half to make it 14-10. I don't know what was said n the Hilltopper locker room at halftime but it sure worked. WKU scored 28 points in the 3rd quarter to take a 38-21 lead. USF scored on the very first play of the 4th quarter to put the over all but in the bag.
USF ralled to cut the lead to 38-35 but a WKU TD with 5 minutes to go clinched it. Final score WKU 45 USF 35 WIN
For todays game I'll take another Mini Mega (want to get a few more wins under my belt before going full Mega) on

The Zips play great rush defense Utah State vs Akron under 48.5 - Utah State stumbled to the finish this year. After beating Boise State in mid October the Aggies lost 4 of 6 barely making a bowl. Akron, meanwhile, has won four in a row and is just happy to be in a bowl. It's only their second bowl ever, the last being in 2005.
These teams are pretty similar. Boith play good defense and struggle on offense. The Zips are great on run defense. They held Oklahoma to 100 yards and Bowling Green to 112. the ended the season 3rd overaqll in rushing defense. The offense has struggled scoring 24 points per game (100the overall)
Utah State's strength is the passing defense which allows 180 yards per game (14th best) but the offense has been a disaster finishing 91st overall.
This game will be a slugfest. I'll take the under for a Mini Mega and Akron to to cover the 6.5 for a quatloo.
I'll also take Toledo to cover getting 1.5 versus Temple for another quatloo. Should be a great game but I have no idea who is going to win. When in doubt take the points.
