The University of Alabama Birmingham Blazers will play host tonight to their AAC rival, the University of North Texas Mean Green. These teams match up well. Mean Green is in the second spot in the AAC and the Blazers are right on their tail in third, but the edge goes to UAB. They are 10-3 as the home team and can light it up, averaging 84.6 points per game. UAB has also won 2 straight and 7 of their last 8. Mean Green is averaging only 68.5 points per game but will offset that with a very stingy defense. They are 4-3 as the away team and lost their last outing to the UTSA Roadrunners, 54-50, who are not that good. The line is currently Blazers -1.5 with a money line of only -115 so why would you sweat the points?
TONIGHT’S PICK: UAB BLAZERS M/L
