1. Texas -43.5
(YTD 3-3 Ats)
Texas is 3-0 Ats this season. I'm really impressed with their defense right now. And when you have a spread this High, you're going to need a lot of three and outs. You're going to need some defensive turnovers and I think Texas defense at home can do that.
I understand that the starting quarterback is out but in my opinion Arch Manning is just as good, he might even be better.
I also understand that ULM has had 2 weeks to prepare and this is their Super bowl game of the season.
I have this game power-rated Texas -48 so we're getting good line value.
Final score 52-3.
2. South Florida +17
South Florida is also 3-0 Ats this season.
I like the continuity and the confidence that South Florida's playing with. They have a lot of returning starters from last year so that's probably what's helping the early continuity.
Both teams are in very good form right now but South Florida is not afraid of Miami. These are players that did not get recruited by Miami, Florida State and Florida so they're going to be playing with a fired up crowd and chip on their shoulder. This South Florida team hung with Alabama until the 4th quarter on the road.
Don't be surprised if South Florida wins the game outright but I do believe we'll have a fairly competitive contest.
I have this game power-rated South Florida +14 so we're still getting line value.
Final score 38-25.
Let's have a winning day everybody.
