He has thrown 18 touchdowns thus far, averaging two per game. He also has a very impressive QBR of 56.1 this season.
Holton Ahlers has been terrific for the Pirates this campaign. He has put up simply unbelievable stat lines thus far and has established himself as one of the very best. His team is on a very formidable run of form and his performances have a lot to do with that. He has racked up 2,632 passing yards thus far, averaging a ridiculous 292 yards per game. He has also thrown 18 touchdowns this season, averaging two per match. One metric that sets him apart from Bryant is his QBR of almost 80, which is astronomically high.
League trends this season suggest that 65.5% of the matches played thus far have been won by the home teams and the odds predict another such result in this encounter as well, as the Bearcats are the higher-value pick.
Pirates vs.Bearcats Final Prediction:
Both teams are in great form, but the Bearcats have been formidable at home this season. They are 4-0 and are yet to be challenged on their home turf, which should also continue tonight. They have a massive advantage with this one, and with the home crowd behind them, they should feel confident about ending the Pirates’ great run of form.
Bearcats: -4.5 (-110)
