Final Score: Prairie View A&M 48, Alabama A&M 5 | Spread: PVAMU -14.5 (Covers Easily) | Total: 52.5 (Under Hits)
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — Bettors backing Prairie View A&M (-14.5) had this one locked up early, as the Panthers dominated every facet of the game in a 48–5 rout over Alabama A&M on Saturday afternoon at Louis Crews Stadium. The victory not only keeps the Panthers in control of their SWAC West title hopes but also rewarded spread bettors with one of the easiest covers of the weekend.
First Half: From Slow Start to Fast Cash
The only nervous moments for Prairie View backers came in the opening quarter. Alabama A&M struck first with a safety and a field goal, taking a brief 5–0 lead — their only points of the day.
That early fluke didn’t last long. The Panthers flipped the script in the second quarter as Ja’Koby Banks broke free for a 39-yard touchdown to put Prairie View up 7–5. They added another score just before halftime to make it 13–5, covering the first-half moneyline (-350) and setting the tone for what would become a full-game beatdown.
The live spread, which ballooned to -24.5 by halftime, proved no issue for a Prairie View squad that found its rhythm behind quarterback Cameron Peters.
Second Half: Peters and Rockwell Put It Away
If you tailed Cameron Peters’ passing props, you were cashing tickets early and often. The Prairie View QB delivered a monster performance, completing 17 of 22 passes (77%) for 394 yards and five touchdowns, easily hitting the Over on his passing yards prop (set around 275.5).
Jyzaiah Rockwell, his top target, torched Alabama A&M’s secondary for 183 receiving yards and three touchdowns, cashing Overs across the board on receptions (O5.5), yards (O85.5), and anytime touchdown (+140).
By the time the third quarter rolled around, Prairie View had built a 20–5 lead, and the fourth quarter turned into a highlight reel — and a payday. The Panthers scored three touchdowns in the final frame, pushing the final total to 48 points, while holding Alabama A&M scoreless the rest of the way.
For total bettors, the Under 52.5 still hit comfortably, thanks to the Bulldogs’ lifeless offense, which managed only 204 total yards and failed to find the end zone.
