North Texas has quietly been going strong, going 4-1. They have a big enough attack to be in the running for the American Athletic Conference title in the coming weeks.
The defense did not work well against Texas Tech, but against Wyoming and Tulsa, everything was fine.
But the Mean Green have not played anyone really good yet. Next week they go to Memphis, and then they play Tulane.
After getting off to a bad start, Florida Atlantic won two of its last three games. While UConn gave it a lot of trouble, it has just enough of a defense to keep this close at home. It can not make a mistake here because three of its next four games are away from home.

North Texas vs Florida Atlantic: Who Will Win
On third downs, neither team can do much, but Florida Atlantic really, really can not score, as it only makes 26% of its chances.
As a result, both teams will get a lot of penalties—at least 15 in total—and will run the ball well. However, the Owls’ lack of a pass rush will cost them.
Both teams will have enough time to work on their deep ball games so that the Mean Greens can beat FAU.
But the fight will go back and forth. Get ready for a lot of big plays and changes in momentum. But North Texas will make a few more.
