Bethune-Cookman @ Central Florida

Fact that Florida-International transfer QB Keyone Jenkins is the backup to starter and James Madison transfer Alonza Barnett gives Central Florida strong potential to continue scoring is HC Scott Frost pulls some starters in the 4th quarter. Each has dual threat capabilities and while Barnett had a far more consistent, talented & high scoring James Madison offense...Jenkins directed FIU to their share of high scoring outings as well. Bethune-Cookman defense last season allowed 40 scores on 42 of their opponents trips into the red-zone. Difference maker here could be when UCF transitions to defensive backups where the Bethune-Cookman offense which averaged 410.5 ty & 29.7 ppg last season (#30 FCS overall). They have a pair of capable QB's who battled throughout the summer for the starting job so figure they can contribute enough in this spot. Tempo is likely to be rapid creating enough opportunities and Knights have immense quick strike ability. "Bounce House" on opening night should see the scoreboard combine to hit 58+.

PLAY: Bethune-Cookman-Central Florida OVER 57.5

Consultant Bio

Rob Veno has been entrenched in the sports handicapping community for 33 years. He was a major component in the success of Sportsmemo from its inception as a daily radio show in 1998. His 5% Bluechip releases have become synonymous with success, and he's carved a place for himself among the nation's elite handicappers. Rob's fundamental analysis of football, basketball, and baseball on the college and pro levels has him regarded as one of the best in the business at breaking down games. Rob began to make an imprint on the Las Vegas scene in the mid-1990s with his weekly football and basketball newsletter, which contained game selections and analysis. Over 30 sportsbooks on and off the strip, plus the famous Las Vegas Gambler's Book Club and newsstands nationwide, carried the publication, which expanded his recognition. He was subsequently invited into Las Vegas' most prestigious handicapping contests of that time, the Stardust Invitational in 1996 and 2004 and the Sunset Station Invitational in 2000. A veteran of sports handicapping radio, Rob began in 1992 by co-hosting a weekly Friday night show at 840 AM KVEG. He went on to do numerous live shows as a guest analyst from casino sportsbooks across the Las Vegas Valley, working with a litany of respected hosts and the most recognized handicappers in the business. Rob finally settled in as one of the mainstays on the daily Vegas Sportswire betting show, which ultimately became the famed Sportsmemo Radio Show and subsequent Podcast. His expertise has been heard on radio stations across the country over the years as he has done a multitude of guest analyst segments. Rob joined WagerTalk in the summer of 2020 and has quickly become a prominent member of their world-class handicapping roster. Rob is a Connecticut native, and after spending 11 years in Las Vegas from 1991-2002, he now resides outside of Philadelphia with his wife.
