Boca Raton Bowl 2020: Odds, Daily Fantasy Tips for BYU vs. UCF

The Boca Raton Bowl has the potential to be the highest-scoring postseason college football contest. 

The UCF Knights and BYU Cougars have two of the most explosive FBS offenses headlined by two of the best quarterbacks at the collegiate level in their possession.

Tuesday night's clash on the campus of Florida Atlantic University has the largest over/under total of any of the 28 bowl games. 

If that projection rings true, Dillon Gabriel and Zach Wilson could be locked in a shootout with Group of Five bragging rights on the line.

Daily Fantasy Tips

Choose Zach Wilson Over Dillon Gabriel

When you glance over the offensive stats of Wilson and Gabriel, it is hard to find a major difference. 

The edge for daily fantasy players in the Boca Raton Bowl could come with the better matchup, which belongs to Wilson. 

UCF concedes 473.7 total yards and 283.4 passing yards per game, while BYU allows 309.5 total yards and 195.7 passing yards per contest. 

The Knights conceded over 20 points to all but one of their opponents. They limited the one-win Temple Owls to 13 points on November 14. 

In its three losses to the best teams in the American Athletic Conference, UCF let up a total of 120 points to the Memphis Tigers, Cincinnati Bearcats and Tulsa Golden Hurricane. 

Although UCF played a more difficult schedule, it displayed plenty of defensive weaknesses that Wilson can exploit. 

Wilson rarely turns the ball over, and he was sacked 10 times in 302 pass attempts. Those qualities could help the 3,200-yard passer outduel Gabriel.

Fit In Each Team's Top Wide Out

Pro Football Focus graded BYU's Dax Milne and UCF's Marlon Williams as two of the top four Group of Five wide receivers. 

Both wide receivers eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark, and Williams brought in two more touchdown passes than Milne. 

Williams' lowest single-game receiving yard total was 87. He produced five 100-yard outings and had four multi-touchdown performances. 

Milne is on a three-game 100-yard streak and he produced one single-game total under 50 yards. That occurred in the season-opening victory over the Navy Midshipmen. 

The two star wideouts should be main factors in building the total score to the over and putting DFS lineups in winning positions. 

If you combine Milne and Williams with one of the dynamic quarterbacks, your lineup should be in good shape. 

BYU tight end Isaac Rex, who has 10 touchdown catches, and any one of UCF's top three running backs should be solid choices to complement the star players to create gaps on the leaderboard.
