St. Louis Battlehawks UFL Week 6 Betting
The St. Louis Battlehawks are emerging as the top threat to the Birmingham Stallions as the best team in the UFL. After a tough opening day loss at Michigan, the Battlehawks have ripped off four consecutive wins. St. Louis is one of the best-balanced teams in the UFL and plays a strong brand of complementary football. And at the all-important QB position, St. Louis has one of the best players in the UFL. Former Alabama great and NFL veteran AJ McCarron is lighting it up for the Battlehawks. McCarron has an 8/1 TD/INT ratio and is getting strong support out of the backfield from Jacob Saylors and Mataeo Durant. Meanwhile, Darrius Sheppard has been a key asset as the top receiver for St. Louis. This week, St. Louis is a heavy betting favorite at home against a terrible Houston Roughnecks team.
