Sam Houston vs Middle Tennessee Preview
This game triggered one of our Action PRO betting systems, powered by Evan Abrams.
Early Unranked Unders is a college football system that identifies value in early-season matchups where neither team is ranked and where offensive expectations are often overstated.
In the first 10 games of the season, unranked teams often lack the consistency and firepower of top programs, leading to sloppy execution, conservative play-calling, and a slower tempo.
The system focuses on regular-season contests where the closing total is above 46, a range that signals scoring potential but often proves inflated when factoring in real game conditions.
Additional filters, such as wind speeds above six MPH and temperatures no higher than 66 degrees, further suppress offensive efficiency, creating an environment where scoring struggles to match market projections.
With the home spread allowed to range widely from slight underdog to heavy favorite, the system captures a broad spectrum of unranked contests where defenses or conditions keep outcomes tighter and lower-scoring than the total suggests, making the under a profitable angle.
Pick: Under 54 (-110, bet365)
