South Dakota vs Boise State Pick
South Dakota has been outstanding offensively, averaging 46 points across its first 3 games. Modrzewski has thrown 11 touchdowns, and the Coyotes have multiple dangerous runners and receivers. Boise State represents a major increase in competition, especially on the road, but South Dakota has enough offensive firepower to challenge the Broncosβ defense. Boise State should control the trenches and lean on Riley and Gaines, although the Coyotes are unlikely to disappear quietly. Look for the Broncos to win behind their rushing attack, but South Dakota should score enough to cover the large spread.
