San Antonio Brahmas UFL Week 6 Betting
Last week, the San Antonio Brahmas kept pace with the St. Louis Battlehawks for the XFL Division lead after a road win against the Arlington Renegades. It should come as no surprise that the Brahmas have one of the best defenses in the UFL. Head coach Wade Phillips built an NFL career as one of the top defensive coordinators in the game. Phillips has used that expertise and his success as a former NFL head coach to make San Antonio one of the best teams in the UFL. San Antonio has a good offensive balance that complements its stout defense. This week, San Antonio has a potentially tricky road game against the D.C. Defenders.

San Antonio’s passing attack through the first four weeks of the UFL season had taken center stage, helping the Brahmas to a 3-1 start. Saturday night, it was the ground game’s turn. Running backs John Lovett and Morgan Ellison combined for 179 of San Antonio’s 190 rushing yards as the Brahmas defeated the Arlington Renegades, 25-15, at Choctaw Stadium. The win improved San Antonio to 4-1 on the season and 2-1 in the XFL conference.
San Antonio’s defense came out firing as well, holding Arlington to no points on their first possession. Linebacker Delontae Scott, who missed the last two games, tallied his first sack of the season on a key third down to force a Renegades punt.
Running back Morgan Ellison wasted no time getting the Brahmas back into Arlington territory with a 47-yard scamper on the first play of the drive. Three plays later, Quinten Dormady found tight end Alize Mack wide-open down the seam for a 24-yard touchdown. The extra point conversion was no good, making the score 9-0. The four-play, 75-yard drive only lasted 1:40.
The Renegades found their way into the red zone with the help of a defensive pass interference penalty. Scott then came up with another big play, this time a tackle for a loss of four yards. On third down, quarterback Luis Perez just missed the outstretched arms of Javonta Payton in the corner of the endzone. On the first play of the second quarter, Jonathan Garibay knocked in a 29-yard field goal to get Arlington on the board, pulling Arlington within 9-3.
