Boise State at UNLV 3:00 ET
Rebels (+) over Broncos- Trying to figure if Boise State is favored because of the football programs reputation or are they actually better than UNLV or maybe it is the experience factor as the Rebels are upstarts and no one expected this kind of season. I have seen the Rebels a number of time up close and personal and they have a multi-talented quarterback is quick accurate and can run but he doesn’t have to so it alone as UNLV’s skilled positions are filled with explosive speed burners and brake-away talent and their running backs are a tough group that fights for every yard. Now, the Rebels are 9-3 SU and 10-2 ATS ad game Michigan all that they could handle and yet they are an underdog at home here. Doesn’t seem right to me. Boise State has won their last three after opening the season with a pair of losses the first at Washington and then they lost three games by 1 point to CSU, by 2 points to C. Florida, by 3 points to Memphis and and the other by one score to Fresno State. Obviously, the Broncos play a much tougher schedule and don’t face the likes of Bryant, Hawaii and Texas El Paso. Against superior competition the Broncos have more yards on offense and allowed less on defense. I come into this liking the Rebels but upon a closer review I believe that they fall short. Take UNLV!
