(859) Florida Atlantic at (860) North Texas
4:00pm EST - Feb 22/2026

THE PLAY: North Texas -2.5 (-108)

Florida Atlantic needs to play at an ultra fast pace to be at their best.  The Owls are just 1-5 SU this season when held to less than 70 points.  North Texas plays at one of the slowest paces in the country, and they are a solid 10-4 SU at home.  North Texas allows just 65.6 points per game at home on 41.8% shooting from the field and 29.8% shooting from 3.  Coming in direct off a home loss, expect a focused effort from the motivated home team in this game on Sunday afternoon.

Play NORTH TEXAS (-).
