5* graded play on UCLA as they host Houston set to start at 10:30 EST. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that UCLA will lose this game by fewer than three points and has an excellent opportunity to win the game. The model also shows that UCLA will score more than 28 points and will gain a minimum of 450 yards. Houston is just 2-11 ATS (-10.1 Units) in road games when they allow 28 or more points over the last 3 seasons. UCLA is a solid 68-28 ATS (+37.2 Units) when they score 28 or more points since 1992; 18-6 ATS (+11.4 Units) when they gain 450 to 500 total yards since 1992. Houston is an imperfect 0-7 ATS (-7.7 Units) in road games after 2 or more consecutive straight up wins over the last 3 seasons; 0-7 ATS (-7.7 Units) after out gaining opponent by 125 or more total yards in 2 consecutive games over the last 3 seasons. Let’s face facts, Houston has played two very weak teams in Texas State University and Texas El Paso. Those opponents are vastly different from the first two that UCLA played in Kansas State and Stanford. I call that seasoning and that will play off mightily for UCLA in this game. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 63-14 making 45.2 units since 2004. Play on a home team versus the money line in non-conference games and in the first month of the season and after closing out last season strong with 4 or more wins in last 5 games. Take UCLA.
