Summary

Dropping the hyphen and going simply with "CUSA" this season, Conference USA is famously the runt of the college football conference litter. But that doesn't make it any less fun, nor does it make us adore it any less. For decades it has served as the springboard conference for plucky programs, and now it welcomes Missouri State and Delaware to a party already graced by UTEP's Miner Nation. And once again they'll play midweek conference games weeks before the MAC begins their annual MACtion slate, a new tradition gamblers have fully embraced. Today Action Network college football betting experts Joshua "Duck" Hodges and Michael Calabrese cover ever team from top to bottom, giving their opinions on win totals, conference title odds, the chances for a perfect season with Liberty, and so much more.
