Memphis vs. UCF Prediction, Odds, Lines, Picks, and Preview - January 11 | 2023 NCAA Basketball Regular Season

The Memphis Tigers travel to Orlando, Florida, to take on the UCF Knights in a game that will go a long way in determining the American Conference. The Tigers and Knights are two evenly matched teams and enter this contest at 12-4.

The Tigers are white-hot entering this contest, winning nine of their last 11 games. UCF is a program that is afraid of no one, and they would be on a five-game winning streak if not for a close-contested loss to one of the best teams in the country, the Houston Cougars.

Houston is the class of the American Conference, but Memphis and UCF have the look of March Madness Tournament teams that can make some noise. Who will be victorious--the road Tigers, or will the Knights protect their home court?

Memphis Tigers vs. UCF Knights: Prediction

I am looking forward to this one. The Memphis Tigers and UCF Knights have high hopes for the 2023 season and have lived up to the hype.

Tonight's game should be a back-and-forth contest.

I lean towards the Tigers, the interior force of DeAndre Williams is too much for UCF to handle. Take Memphis and take the point.

Final Prediction: Memphis Tigers +1 (-110), Over 137.5
