Middle Tenn St vs. Florida Atlantic
Play: Florida Atlantic -2.5

Same formula as last year. Florida Atlantic starting to come together after taking their lumps vs. strong non-conference schedule (Neb, S. Carolina, Wyoming). Senior QB Rusty Smith, working his magic again, should be able to stay one step ahead, on the scoreboard, vs. the visiting Blue Raiders. Smith, 95 pts generated L2 games, 59.1 comp% w/ 12/3 TD/Int ratio this season. Plus, close game favors the home team. Take Fla Atlantic.
