This is a 10* SUPER-BLOWOUT on Florida International.

REASONING: We simply feel that this is a bad spot for Rice as we think the 15-8 Owls will get caught "looking past" their lowly competition today. FIU enters with an 8-13 overall record, which includes going just 1-9 in C-USA action. Rice is 15-8 overall, but note that it's batting just .500 with a 5-5 record in league play. The Owls most recently beat North Texas 95-80. Note though that the Owls had two more turnovers than assists in that one. In fact, they're averaging 15.7 turnovers a game, which is the most in the conference. The Golden Panthers come in off a 95-80 loss to Charlotte. Donte McGill had 27 points on 67 percent shooting. Note that Rice is in fact just 4-6 ATS against the conference this season and only 1-3 ATS after a win against a conference rival, while FIU is 5-1 ATS against teams with winning records and 4-2 ATS after allowing 80 points or more. Grab as many points as you can, play on FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL.
