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.
We went 6-5 in week two and are 25-12 on the year. Continuing to come back down to Earth. Lets see if we can’t pick it back up.
Boise State @ San Diego State (+6.5, O/U 45.5)
Boise State is average. San Diego State is meh. Maybe once they both get to conference play, they’ll pick it up. I have more faith in Boise than I do the Aztecs even though this is in San Diego. The Aztecs haven’t inspired much confidence in them so far this season. Take the Broncos to cover.
Pick: Boise State -6.5
Spartan Nation, it’s time for you to show UP and show OUT!⚔️#ClimbTheMountain | #AllSpartans pic.twitter.com/03x6mwxs6F

Air Force @ San Jose State (+5.5, O/U 46.5)
San Jose State lost on a pick six. Air Force looks to be a team even with replacing their skill positions. The Falcons are in the driver’s seat for a MW Championship berth at this moment. The Spartans seem like a team to play spoiler. Air Force covers on the road.
Pick: Air Force -5.5
New Mexico @ Massachusetts (-3.5, O/U 50.5)
If UMass wins, they get to claim New Mexico as a part of Massachusetts. They already beat New Mexico State earlier this season and now they get to play the Lobos who are coming off a loss to the Aggies in the Rio Grande Rivalry. Let down game is here, Minutemen cover.
Pick: UMass -3.5
Colorado State @ Middle Tennessee (-2.5, O/U 51.5)
Speaking of let down games, the Rams head to Tennessee after giving Deion Sanders and Co all they could handle. The Blue Raiders are coming off a victory and have a shot to put an arrow in CSU’s heart. CSU seems to have turn a corner and they look to be able to keep it up. Take the Rams outright.
Pick: Colorado State ML
For the first time in program history…

Appalachian State @ Wyoming (-2.5, O/U 42.5)
If this was in North Carolina, I’d be taking App State. But since this is at altitude, I don’t want to touch the spread. The total seems low here. App State has had some high scoring games this season. And curiously, so have the Cowboys. The Texas game being the only one to be under the total here.
Pick: Over
