While we are primarily a situationally based handicapping service, we don't subscribe to any one single 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 on a few different factors:

First vs. worst: UAB is 17-3 and currently in first place in the C-USA, the Blazers have won 14 straight and interestingly are 5-0 ATS in their last five "Thursday" games; also 4-1 ATS their last five on the road. The Hilltoppers are ranked 11th in Conference and come into this one having lost two straight; note that WKU is just 2-5 ATS in its last seven overall.

The bottom line: No need to overanalyze this one, the BLAZERS continue to prove that they're the cream of the crop, we don't foresee a letdown whatsoever in this spot, lay the MONEY-LINE on the visitors.
