What are the oddsmakers saying about these match ups?

Late in the week we will look at odds and recent lines and make our best picks and bets. Odds courtesy of Vegas Insider and inputted at time of writing.

The teams seemed to have settled down. However, there still remains a slight tinge of chaos. We went 5-1 last week and are 34-34 on the year. Back up to .500 on the season and only four games for this week.

Colorado State @ Boise State (-25.5, O/U 41.5)

The under has hit in every CSU game and the majority of Boise State games this season. Two strong defenses going against offenses trying to show improvement is a recipe for the under. Boise will most likely win their 12th in a row against the Rams, but it will be a close one.

Pick: Under

San Diego State @ Fresno State (-10 O/U 43)

This seems like the trap bet of the week. Fresno State QB Jake Haener is out once again. So Logan Fife takes the reigns. Jalen Mayden has brought a spark to the Aztec offense that has been missing it desparately. The Bulldogs are home and will win, but San Diego State will make it interesting.

Pick: San Diego State +10

Nevada @ San Jose State (-24.5, O/U 44.5)

The Spartans haven’t really put together a complete performance consistently this season. However, they look to be able to get back on track against a struggling Wolf Pack squad. Nevada keeps switching QBs and can’t get their offense going. So expect the San Jose State to get their offense rolling this week.

Pick: Over

Wyoming @ Hawai’i (+11.5 O/U 50.5)

Wyoming has struggled going to the Islands to face Hawai’i. They even lost last year in Laramie. This year is different. Hawai’i is facing a transition under new head coach Timmy Chang. The Cowboys want to remain in contention for the MW Championship and will do so, but they won’t be able to score a bunch.

Pick: Under
