This Beef O’Brady’s Bowl St. Petersburg showdown has Ball State with a 9-3 record and UCF at 9-4. Central Florida is surprisingly a pretty heavy -7 point favorite considering how close their two records are. The line on this game was steady across the board. 60 percent of the betting action on the spread was on Ball State.
The two teams haven’t met since 2004, so there is little Gambling911.com can gather from recent head-to-head performance.
As a favorite of between 3.5 and 10 points, UCF is 6-2 Against The Spread over the past three years.
In games played on turf, Ball State is 14-4 ATS over the past three seasons.
While the Knights are 13-5 ATS in their last 18 games following a Straight Up loss, one of the more critical trends has them just 1-10 ATS in their last 11 games after allowing less than 170 yards passing in their previous game.
The Cardinals are 9-2 Against The Spread in their last 11 games following a S.U. win. They are also 19-7 ATS in their last 26 non-conference games and are 8-3 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
