AAA Early Sat. Shocker! -- 12 ET Upset Alert!
(NCAAF) Owls (RICE) vs. Black Knights (ARM),
Point Spread: 6.50 | -112.00 Owls (RICE) (Away)
Result: Loss
We like the Rice Owls to cover the spread against Amry for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

1. The Owls lost at Houston last game. Off their previous loss, they responded with a 69-7 victory in their next game.

2. With 15 returning starters, Rice is a much improved team from last season.

3. Coach Bloomgren says this is his best team and this is his 7th season here.

4. Army only returned 3 starters on defense.

5. They covered against lowly Lehigh but the Knights are still only 27-34 ATS their last 61 home games. They're 0-3 ATS the last 3x times that they were home favorites of 14 points or less.

The Knights are favored but we're not convinced that they're the better team. It's likely going to be close and we expect to see Rice pull off the upset.
