Why Bet on the UTSA Roadrunners?

The Roadrunners boast one of the nation’s top offenses. UTSA averages 486.2 yards per game, ranking ninth in college football. The Roadrunners rank twelfth in passing yards per game at 308.6. Quarterback Frank Harris has thrown for 3,865 yards and 31 TDs. Harris completes over 71% of his passes. Harris has also rushed for 588 yards and 9 touchdowns. No doubt, Frank is the reason the Roadrunners rank twelfth in points per game at 38.7. Also, Texas-San Antonio’s offense has just 7 turnovers on the season.

The Roadrunners offense has to score points because the defense hasn’t had a great season. UTSA’s D allows over 408 total yards per game, ranking ninetieth in NCAAF.

Opponents average 26.5 points per game. The good news regarding the D is that Trey Moore has 6 sacks and Clifford Chatman has 4 interceptions. Overall, the team has 13 takeaways this season, ranking a nice twenty-sixth in the nation.

Why Bet on the Troy Trojans?

Troy’s offense doesn’t rank better than forty-eighth in any category. But the O has done what’s required for the Trojans to go 11-2 this season.

The Trojans average 26.2 points from 375 yards per game. Troy runs a balanced offense. The Trojans average 252.5 passing yards and 122.5 rushing yards per game.

Running back Kimani Vidal has rushed for 1,059 yards. Vidal has also caught 24 passes for 133 yards.

Troy’s offense doesn’t have to be spectacular because the defense rocks. The Trojans’ D ranks eighth in points allowed per game at 17.5.

Opponents average 324.9 total yards per game, ranking twenty-eighth. T.J. Jackson terrorized quarterbacks during the regular season with 8 sacks. Reddy Steward has 3 interceptions.

UTSA vs. Troy Betting Trends

Roadrunners are 5-1 ATS in their last 5 games.
UTSA is 13-5 ATS versus a team with a winning record.
Over is 5-0 in Texas-San Antonio’s last 5 non-conference games.
Trojans are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games.
Troy is 4-0 ATS versus a team with a winning record.
Under is 7-1 in Troy’s last 8 games on grass.

UTSA vs. Troy Expert Betting Predictions

The reason the spread line flipped is because Troy’s defense should contain Frank Harris. The Trojans D doesn’t just stop the pass, they’re also great at stopping the rush.

Not only that, but Troy’s offense, although not posting super-impressive stats, is good enough for the Trojans to average over 26 points per game.

What it means is that if the offense must step it up it can. In 11 games this season, it hasn’t had to because Troy’s D has played lights out. The Trojans held Coastal Carolina to 26 points in their last game.

utSometimes, it makes sense to follow the money. In this game, the money is going in the direction of the Troy Trojans.
