UAB Blazers vs Florida Atlantic Owls. The NCAAF pick for this game is the Florida Atlantic Owls. On the ground, it will be difficult for both sides to restrain one another.

Because of the Blazers’ strong pass defense, the Owls will run the ball a lot, and I’m trusting the home team to keep it within a score.

The stakes are quite high considering that UAB and Florida Atlantic are both 2-2 in league play. In three of FAU’s past four games, the margin of victory was three points or less, so I anticipate another close contest when the Owls play the Blazers.

The Florida Atlantic Owls will win by a predicted 27-21.
