Week 9 UFL predictions, picks: Pro football spread betting expert reveals early best bets for Week 9 action

Scoring continues to trend upward in the UFL, with all four matchups flying over the total last week, including five teams scoring at least 28 points. There had been nine such instances of a team scoring 28 points in the first seven weeks of the season combined, so the uptick in scoring as the season comes to an end is notable as new quarterbacks continue to mix into lineups due to injury and ineffectiveness. The playoffs appear pretty much set, with two games separating the second and third teams in the USFL division and three games separating the same teams in the XFL division.

Week 9 features a playoff preview as the top two teams in the USFL division square off, with the Michigan Panthers as 1.5-point road favorites in Birmingham against the defending champions. In fact, all four road teams are favored this week, with the three lowest-scoring teams in the league all at home facing the two other playoff teams plus an Arlington squad that has performed better than its 3-5 record indicates.

There are four games on the Week 9 UFL schedule, with the St. Louis Battlehawks the biggest favorites of the week, laying eight points at San Antonio. Before making any Week 9 UFL picks, you NEED to see what SportsLine football expert R.J. White has to say.
