Stallions vs Panthers Prediction & Pick

The home-field advantage might be with the Panthers, but they're too tough to trust lately. After a 2-0 start to the campaign, they've racked up three consecutive losses. What's even worse is that Michigan only averaged exactly 10 points in each loss while getting outscored by an average of 16.7 points.

Now, the Panthers must attempt to stop the Stallions, who pace the USFL with a 28.8 PPG clip. Meanwhile, Michigan owns the second-worst offense (16.6 PPG) and has allowed 23-plus points in each loss during its skid. Whether it's concerning scoring or keeping the ball out of their end zone, I just don't see the Panthers keeping pace Saturday evening.

The Stallions are better than their recent rough patch shows and a date with the Panthers is exactly what they need to start climbing the standings.

Final Score Prediction: Stallions: 27 | Panthers: 14

Stallions vs Panthers Best Bet

I'm siding with the Stallions on the spread for this game's best bet. After all, they're scoring 12.2 more points per game than the Panthers, who've lost each of their past three games by at least 15 points. With how easy it's been for Birmingham to score this season, I'd be shocked if the road team doesn't win by more than a touchdown.

Bet: Stallions -6 (-110)
