The Golden Panthers featured the 16th-best defense in FBS rankings this past season, allowing just 19.4 points against per game, and finished with three straight victories in college football betting results against Florida-Atlantic, Louisiana-Monroe, and Middle Tennessee.
 
Florida International is listed as 4-point favorites to earn the victory over Marshall (6-6 SU, 7-5 ATS), which gave up 30.2 points per game to rank 84th overall in the nation. The Thundering Herd edged Memphis 23-22 back on November 17 before concluding its regular season with a 34-27 overtime victory at home against East Carolina.
 
On offense the Golden Panthers also performed better than the Thundering Herd, scoring 26.3 points per game to finish 67th in the country, while Marshall managed to put just 22 points per game on the board to rank 98th overall.
 
Both teams favored the UNDER this season, with Florida International finishing at 3-8-1 O/U and Marshall winding up at 5-7 on the totals. The UNDER went 6-1-1 in the past eight games involving the Golden Panthers, and 8-3 in the past 11 games in which Marshall was the underdog.
