Spokane at Tampa Bay (Arena Football)

Spokane at Tampa Bay (Arena Football)
7:30pm Saturday
pick: TB +11.5

TB is 3-3 and 2-1 at home. Their last two losses were against other teams (Jax, Orlando) that are rivals in the state of Florida. Tampa Bay supports their team as they have had close to 11,000 at all their home games and their one loss was by four points.
TB has a decent QB in Randy Hippeard as he has 22 TD's and just 3 int's at home. The WR's are Toliver, Jackson, Hills and Lindsey (Hilton has been suspended).

Spokane is a sold team that has lost to good teams like Arizona and Cleveland. Their QB is Erik Meyer, who is a solid signal caller. Spokane does have to travel all the way across the country and head south in a long road trip. I won't be shocked to see Spokane win easily but like our chances to see Tampa Bay stay within 10 points.

Note: All sportsbooks used to carry odds for Arena Football but now there are just a few that recognize the league.

Tampa Bay +11.5

Hey Doc..good to see ya on here, you're a wealth of knowledge!
What books normally offer Arena league action? I noticed BET365 has games up, but all currently say Offline, so I'm skeptical as to whether there will ever be action available on these. Any other suggestions?

I believe I saw the line at Pinnacle.
Most books list AFL as Australian Rules Football.

Tough loss as Tampa Bay led 41-40 early in the 4th but ends up losing 53-41.

(I should have gone with Cleveland -3 at home vs. Pittsburgh but it looked too easy.)
