US -42 total 167.5

Seems this could be the last opportunity the US has for a witness the power and the glory 60+ point win. They want to be the Dream Team, they want to kill opponents, so they want at least one game like the 68 point win vs Angola in 92.

I question if Nigeria deserves to be 11.5 points lower vs US than Tunisia. Nigeria barely beat Tun by 4, and Tun was especially terrible that game.

They were embarrassed by Tunisia despite winning by 47 points. Tunisia was leading 6 minutes into the game. Coach K pulled the starters for playing like shit 5 minutes in. I heard on two occasions US media talking about Tunisia covering the spread as if it were a joke performance by US. They won't come out lax again. Don't see the line going down and -42 is solid
