The XFL is back for a third time after suspending operations in 2020 in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. New owners Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Dany Garcia bring the spring league back this Saturday, with the Vegas Vipers squaring off against the Arlington Renegades, one of three opening-week games in Texas. This iteration of the XFL features the DC Defenders, Seattle Sea Dragons, St. Louis BattleHawks joining the Vipers in the North division, and the Houston Roughnecks, San Antonio Brahmas and Orlando Guardians joining the Renegades in the South division.

Before you make any 2023 XFL Championship futures wagers, you NEED to see what pro football expert R.J. White has to say.

White, a Fantasy and gambling editor for CBS Sports, consistently crushes against-the-spread picks and went 535-450-30 on his ATS picks from 2017-22, which returned more than $3,500 to $100 players. He also closed the NFL season on an incredible 107-80-6 on his last 193 against-the-spread and total NFL picks during the 2022 NFL season, returning more than $1,800 for $100 bettors.

White has crushed not only the NFL but also the XFL during its abbreviated season, going 16-4 on XFL ATS picks before the league suspended operations as sportsbooks scrambled to correctly evaluate team quality in a league where little was known heading into the season. Anyone who has followed him is WAY UP!

Now, with sportsbooks posting odds to win the 2023 XFL Championship, White has analyzed all eight teams and released his best bets for the 2023 season.

We can tell you he's fading the St. Louis BattleHawks, who have opened as favorites at some sportsbooks. White believes quarterback AJ McCarron is on his last legs as a professional quarterback and he could have trouble staying upright behind a questionable offensive line.

White also loves an under-the-radar team that could make BIG waves. This longshot has a successful coach that still has much to prove and an offense with a lot of upside. Anyone who backs this underdog could hit it big!
