The XFL Week 5 schedule will feature one Thursday night game, two Saturday contests and then will wrap up on Sunday night with an in-state rivalry matchup between the Arlington Renegades and the San Antonio Brahmas. Before locking in any Week 5 XFL bets, you definitely want to see what SportsLine football expert Emory Hunt has to say. 

Hunt is the founder and CEO of Football Gameplan, which has been supplying analysis of all levels of football since 2007. He is a former running back for the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns and knows the game from a player's perspective. Hunt's dedication to analysis of all levels of college and professional football helped him start the USFL season 24-18 last year, and now he's off to a fast 12-4 start on his XFL spread picks this season. 

Now Hunt has broken down the Week 5 of the 2023 XFL season and made his spread picks for every game. We can tell you that he's backing the Renegades (+3) against the Brahmas.

"Kyle Sloter is the better QB in this matchup, and the Renegades have the much better passing game. San Antonio can run the ball, but have been pedestrian at best in the passing game," Hunt said. "If it came down to taking away a team's strengths and forcing them to play one-handed, I'll take my chances with the Renegades in that matchup."

Hunt has locked in plays for every other game during Week 5 of the XFL season, including backing a team that "looks like it's steamrolling toward the XFL championship." You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks before making any of your own.
