This is a 10* CONF-USA TOW on the UNDER UTEP/Louisiana Tech.
Both teams have been involved in several higher-scoring games of late, but I think these bottom-feeders will finally play to more of a defensive battle on Tuesday night.
UTEP is just 1-6. It won't be going bowling. It is however coming in off its first win of the season in last week's 30-21 home victory over FIU as 7-point dogs.
The Miners have seen the total go OVER in three straight, but note that dating to last season UTEP has seen the total go UNDER in four of its last five after playing to three or more straight OVERs in a row. Over their previous four games UTEP's high was 21 points vs. Sam Houston State, but I have a hard time seeing the Miners even reach that amount this weekend.
Louisiana Tech is just 2-4 and it's off a 33-30 OT loss at New Mexico State as a 12-point favorite. That's also significant to take note of though, as the Bulldogs have seen the total go UNDER in three of their last four off a SU/ATS road loss as favorites.
The overall situation, combined with the numbers/trends point to this being a much more defensive battle than what the oddsmakers are trying to lead us to believe.
This number is high, the play is the UNDER.
Good luck, NP
