Abilene Christian vs. Idaho: Tough Schedule Doesn't Settle the Pick
Analysis updated September 19, 2026 at 6:26 AM CDT
The Wildcats' opponents help explain their 0-3 start, but don't establish an edge over Idaho at SPF's price.
What the Wildcats' record tells us
Abilene Christian opened with losses to No. 20 Lamar, No. 12 Texas Tech and No. 9 Stephen F. Austin, according to Abilene Christian Athletics, the university's official athletics site. That schedule gives context to the Wildcats' 0-3 record, but it doesn't establish that they should be favored by 1.5 points at Idaho, as SPF has them.
The Wildcats lost 26-7 to Stephen F. Austin on September 12. John David Black connected with Itty Henry for a 6-yard touchdown to finish a 91-yard drive, but that possession alone offers little basis for expecting consistent scoring against the Vandals.
Betting outlook
Idaho also enters 0-3. SPF lists Abilene Christian at -118 on the moneyline and Idaho at -105, with the Vandals getting 1.5 points. Without confirmed starters, injury updates or comparative season statistics, there's no supported matchup edge to justify backing either team. Pass.
The total is 54.5, with the over at -108 and the under at -115. ACU's seven-point performance last week doesn't establish an under bet without a clearer picture of Idaho's offense and both defenses.
