We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account a bunch of different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. The actual contestants on the field of play rarely enter into our equation when making selections, unless it's a Top 3 player like a LeBron James or Aaron Rodgers etc. One set of criteria which we almost always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. Sometimes these stats can be overrated and other times they help foreshadow the outcome of a contest.

This particular play is based entirely on strong and relevant ATS statistics:

Note that Louisiana Monroe is 7-3 ATS this season off a win vs. a conference rival and 11-5 ATS vs. the conference overall, while South Alabama is just 4-6 ATS vs. teams with winning records and only 1-2 ATS this year in revenging a blowout loss of 20 points or more.

The bottom line: "Revenge" is a powerful motivating factor, but it can be overrated as well. And that's the case here, in their first meeting this season ULM would destroy South Alabama 100-68 on January 23rd. We're expecting another beatdown today, the WARHAWKS are on a real roll and we have a hard time seeing a letdown in this one.
