After two games on the road, the North Texas Mean Green are heading back home. North Texas and the FIU Panthers will face off in a Conference USA battle at 4 p.m. ET on Saturday at Apogee Stadium. Coming off of a win even when the odds were against them, the Mean Green have to be feeling especially confident now that the spread is in their favor.

North Texas took their contest against the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers on Saturday by a conclusive 40-13 score. North Texas QB Austin Aune was slinging it as he passed for three TDs and 322 yards on 29 attempts. Aune's 56-yard touchdown toss to WR Damon Ward Jr. in the first quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the afternoon.

Meanwhile, it may have taken double overtime to finish the job, but FIU ultimately got the result they were hoping for on Friday with a 42-34 victory over the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs. The team accrued 21 points in the first half and coasted on those for the win. FIU QB Grayson James did work as he passed for three TDs and 321 yards on 48 attempts.

This next game looks promising for North Texas, who are favored by a full 21 points. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a five-game streak of ATS wins.

Their wins bumped North Texas to 5-4 and the Panthers to 4-4. After the lofty point totals in their previous games, we'll see if they're able to heat things up even more while facing each other.
