While we are primarily a situationally based handicapping service, we don't prescribe 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:
- The favorite is 6-2 SU in the last eight Rose Bowls
- Iowa is just 2-6 ATS in its last eight vs. the Pac-12
- Cardinal RB Christian McCaffrey has a FBS record 3,496 all purpose yards; note that Stanford is one of just 13 teams in the nation that averages more than nine yards per pass attempt as well.
- Stanford is 5-1 ATS in its last six bowl games.
The Bottom Line: We like the experience on Stanford and think rest leads to rust for the Hawkyes.
Play on the CARDINAL.
