Hunt is the founder and CEO of Football Gameplan, which has been supplying analysis of all levels of football since 2007. He is a former running back at Louisiana-Lafayette and knows the game from a player's perspective. Hunt is 24-18 on his USFL selections this season and has gone 12-6 over the past five weeks.

The expert knows the Stallions were the class of the USFL all season, losing their perfect season in Week 9. The defense put up 27 sacks in the regular season, and they got TDs in all three phases in last week's win. DeMarquis Gates returned an interception for a touchdown and Victor Bolden got the first kickoff-return TD in the league's inaugural season, going 90 yards after New Orleans had tied it at 14. QB J'Mar Smith, who threw for 175 yards per game in the regular season (third-best in USFL), led three long scoring drives.

Hunt also has considered that the Stars will do whatever they need to do to win. Philly had lost both meetings with New Jersey in the regular season but clawed its way to the title game. QB Case Cookus threw for 1,334 yards (148 per game), fourth-most in the USFL, in just seven starts. The Stars scored almost three points more per game than any other team, and their running backs averaged 5.1 yards per carry, best in the USFL. They also forced a league-high 22 turnovers and were a USFL-best plus-8 in turnover margin.
