I think there is some value here on FIU. Last week they got Indiana who game in with a defense that was a complete improvement from last season, and gave FIU a lot of trouble with their 4-2-5 scheme.
This week I think the offense gets on track at home vrs. Maryland who is also with new staff, but maybe a more conventional scheme that FIU is used to seeing.
Playing FIU over 21 +100
McGough can make throws, and FIU likes to pass. They've got an NFL talent at TE and missed a couple connections last week that could have been long gains. If the rust is off after week 1, this unit can put up some points.
They may have to put up points to keep up with Maryland tonight, who has a new HC in Walt Bell who wants to run a frantic paced offense. The goal for Bell is to snap the bull with 30 seconds left on the play clock every time. The sheer volume of plays should also lead to more opportunities for the FIU offense, so I think the value is definitely there for FIU at home after a poor showing vrs. Indiana last week.
