The rest gap came up early. The guys noted Memphis has the rest advantage, 12 days against six for South Florida. They also credited South Florida with a top 10 scoring defense, a plus-seven turnover margin and a run of close losses. The guys said the latest came on a walk-off 55-yarder by ECU.
Colby went straight to the stakes. He called it a huge game and said Memphis looks pretty strong down the stretch if it wins. He is less sold on South Florida in year one under Hartline. In his view they have cooked the books a little on that record. He put them at 125th in total offense and called the offense a little too stagnant. He said Memphis is still in a very good spot to potentially make the playoffs and laid the 3.5 with Memphis.
One of the guys then went Memphis too, citing the rest gap and South Florida coming off that heartbreaking loss to ECU. His read was that Memphis rolls.
Ryan came last and took South Florida as the home dog. He said he has seen what happens when he disagrees with the other two.
