South Florida at San Jose State: Preview

South Florida travels across the country this Saturday to match up with San Jose State as the NCAA Football season officially kicks off. The Bulls enter the matchup as a 20-to-21-point road favorite, with the total set at 68.5.

South Florida heads into this Week 1 contest having won 18-of-21 games overall going back to last season. They bring back 16 starters and are ready to prove they're deserving of their ranking. San Jose State, on the other hand, enters this season with a new coach in Brent Brennan looking to move past a 4-8 2016 season.

What to Watch For

South Florida marches down the field to the beat of QB Quinton Flowers and he's projected to build off an impressive 2016 season. He's one of the best dual-threats in the nation, finishing 2016 with 2,812 passing yards and 1,530 rushing yards. He had 24 passing TDs and just seven picks to go along with 18 rushing TDs. Flowers lost his main receiving weapon in Rodney Adams, but still can rely on RB D'Ernest Johnson to carry some of the load.

Any chance San Jose St. has at keeping this game close depends largely on the South Florida defense struggling out of the gates in 2017. That unit was very inconsistent last year, allowing over 38 points per contest in the last six games of the season. That average was below 26 in the first seven games of the 2016 season. With Charlie Strong leading the way, all signs point to South Florida being a much better defensive unit this year compared to last -- they're returning 15 of their top 20 tacklers from the year before.

Betting Trends
• South Florida is 15-7 against the spread [ATS] in its last 22 games going back the last two seasons.
• South Florida is 5-0 straight up [SU] in its last 5 games going back to last season.
• The total has gone OVER in 6 of South Florida’s last 7 games going back to last season.
• San Jose State is 3-7 SU in its last 10 games going back to last season.
• The total has gone UNDER in 5 of San Jose State’s last 7 games going back to last season.

Projected Score & Analyst's Pick

The average score after 10,000 AccuScore sims is 49-19.

South Florida's looking to kick off the season firing on all cylinders. And given the number of starters they're bringing back, I expect South Florida to dominate both sides of the ball, with the offense having some hiccups here and there.

I'll take the Bulls to cover, and the UNDER.

What is Accuscore?


Accuscore provides predictive analytics on sports, based on the company’s own algorithmic simulation engine which has been under constant development for almost two decades. Sports predictions are an outcome of simulations in which individual games are simulated for thousands of times in order to arrive to the most likely results. These results are then used to create analytical predictions, content and advice for bettors, pundits or any stakeholders in the industry or media field. For the individual US users, Accuscore’s predictions can be accessed through subscription to BetQL.

The Accuscore simulation engine uses the relevant historical data of the players, teams and leagues to predict the outcomes of the games before they have started. The simulation results are based on the individual player performances and weighted according to the teams’ form, opponent and other circumstances that have been proven relevant to the outcome of the match. We have managed to filter out the unnecessary data-points by determining which are important and which are not – this has taken several hundreds of thousands of simulations, cross-references and comparisons of simulation results to actual outcomes.

Accuscore aims to provide independent, unbiased and objective sports predictions for all the customers. We strive to be transparent and all our simulations results are available in the archives. Throughout the years Accuscore has worked with several betting companies, for example Pinnacle and Coolbet, media houses such as Telia and Sporing News, sports teams and leagues, and of course individuals through our subscription service.

Our capabilities include tailoring the sports predictions service to any B2B need with different licensing models, revenue sharing programs or affiliate markets. We can package content based on the simulations in several different ways, which can include automated widgets, unique articles, videos or pure numbers from a feed – whatever suits your needs!

How to use Accuscore sports predictions?

Accuscore’s simulations provide various advantages for both businesses and individuals. The simulations are based on a sovereign algorithmic system and all the simulations are always ran the exact same way. The only variables are the data inputs which the simulation engine then uses to create the sports predictions according to the algorithmic model. The model has a proven track record and for example the NFL picks have provided constant profit over the years.

The simulations provide probabilities for the outcomes of the games which include – depending of the sport – for example the most likely final result, the amount of goals or points and player performances. These sport predictions can be compared to odds in order to make a more educated betting decision or they can be used to support, oppose or adjust ones view on the betting market.

For businesses the sports predictions provide an opportunity to use original content in various forms which can be modified to suit any need, for example: providing more information to customers, attracting traffic or users, as unique content to publish or for other marketing purposes such as short videos for social media. We are happy to tailor our service for each B2B customer.

Testimonials

I use Accuscore to help me trade sports bets, much like an options trader trades options. By using Accuscore's sliding tool bar, I determine how to best find a ‘middle’ and the odds of Home win, Visitor win, and tie. I find it allows me to develop a systemic approach to playing the spreads... Thanks!
Jason Daniels
I am a sports investor and have been doing it long enough to come out ahead at a 57% rate. Armed with basic information, coupled with AccuScore's Expert Pick data, has resulted in healthy profits for me. If you possess a general understanding of probability & statistics and sports investing, you will watch your account grow betting with AccuScore!
Tim Wrights
For Accuscore I use their hot picks but I add one important factor. Since all games here are given a statistical percentage of winning I build in my own percentage minus for injured key players. I also sometimes adjust that over all percentage bias in accordance to the opposing team strengths if they are significant.
Josh Johnson
Accuscore has become an indispensable part of my personal handicapping. The best aspect of Accuscore's technical analysis is that it can be used in numerous ways to pick a winning team. Become familiar with the easy to use interface and you'll quickly discover the value of the Accuscore edge!
Mark Williams
When deciding on what picks to go with I combine the AccuScore data with my understanding of the sport. I read the forecast and decide whether or not I agree with AccuScore’s prediction. If I do agree, I make the pick. If not, I move on to the next highest percentage.
Nick Turnbull
I always go to the expert pick page to find out the computer record for each team involved giving more credence to 3-star and especially 4-star picks. The real kicker is using my own knowledge of the teams to back-up what the numbers are telling me. When they both line up is when I make a bet.
