Arizona was a game away from a top tier bowl. They lose and now they travel a few miles away to Glendale....whoopie!!!
Where is Arizona's motivation? How can they possibly care about this game?
Also, why is a pac12 team giving only THREE to Boise? That line is really fishy.....
Boise has a long history of upsetting Pac12 teams and they really get up for games like these.
Boise tends to have a strong fan following to these games
Boise has an offense to smack around the weak Arizona defense

Mountain West teams are 3-23 SU vs. Pac 12 since the beginning of 2012. Boise State contributed two of the losses – by 32 points to Washington in last year’s opener, then by 15 points to Oregon State in last season’s Hawaii Bowl.
That said, underdogs are doing well and the only short favs to cover bowl games so far are Utah & Memphis. All the others have lost (OU, Miami, W. Mich, WKU, Nevada, S. Alabama, Cincy, SD State, UCF, BC and WVU).
I wouldn't join the stampede on the favorite here.

For those of you who once again have proven your lack of knowledge about bowl games, the Fiesta Bowl IS a top tier game, along with the Rose, Sugar, Cotton, Orange, and Peach Bowl. You guys have to stop making crap up to try and prove a point. If you think that Oregon will not be motivated, you obviouly do not know much about RichRod. Boise State played one Power 5 team and got crushed, 35-13, by Ole Miss. The rest of their schedule was a cream puff compared to Oregon's schedule. Arizona -3 is a gift.
So you're putting your money on Arizona?
We all cap differently......it seems you try to make sense if bowl teams & when betting bowls, throw all sense of you thinking you understand about who's the better team & who should cover......if that was the case, the favs would be undefeated........
The bowls are NOT capped like the regular season........
BigDaddyDoctorDickEmQH has announced over and over that he knows everything. Why don't people listen. Oh..... cause he strikes you as a "Dick with Ears".
I stressed this in the discussion of Neb/SoCal the other night. This cannot be overstated.
Whatever tier this game is..... The bold part of the statement is ball-on accurate and is ALL you need to know. Be VERY careful with this matchup.
I happen to agree that scoring will probably not be in short supply!
Watched Boise St. lose to Air Force this year .... lots of turnovers for the Broncos in that game. I think their game vs. New Mexico would be concerning if you are going to play them. Had to come from behind to beat a very poor team and gave up 627 yards of offense ... 505 yards of which were on the ground.
If its such a fucking gift, why wasn't it on your list of 3 Bowl games to play? Here was your all knowing, genius playbook to crushing the Bowls.......
"WhY do people have to wager on every game? Obviously in the long run, you are going to lose money by doing so. You probably will not lose a lot, but you will lose. Do you do this for bragging rights? If so, get a life. No one really cares how much money anyone in here claims to win. People know the truth. You guys who love to make "Large" wagers do not even know what a "Large" wager is. Here is a hint. If you wager at 5dimes, you do NOT make "Large" wagers. Maybe they are large to you, but not to gamblers who actually make "Large" wagers. It becomes comical at times to see all of the "wanna-be's" talking about their "Large" wagers.
Apparently another way to lose money is by selecting fewer games, hammering them, and watching your bankroll go bye bye. Your 3 HUGE plays went 1-2. I have a buddy that has a play on the majority of games if not all, and has been doing so for years. Some plays are 2 units, some are 1 unit. He's 14-7 and 4-1 on Top Plays (2U). So that makes him 18-8 unit wise.
Tell him he's gonna lose money in the long run, he'll laugh in your face.
Another favorite is the guys who have to sound like Touts. Are you trying to impress us with your alleged knowledge? Forget it. Touts are just as good/bad as anyone when it comes to wagering. That is why Touts do NOT wager, but stick to taking money from the suckers who give it to them. I also love the guys who promise to leave the RX or stop posting if their team loses and never do. Those are the guys who deserve a serious butt kicking. You may not like every poster in here, but no one likes a complete and total arsehole.
Sound like an arsehole. Pot...meet kettle.
The biggest problem is here is the believeability problem. Some guys post after the game has started. Others come up with alleged lines that their "book" or "guy" gave them. Others claim to have taken the line days b efore they actually posted what they took. All very nice, and all very unbelieveable.
Why don't you guys wise up and play the bowl season the way you should play it. Wager larger amounts of money on fewer games. I know that something like that scares most people in here because they worry about how much they may lose. It is like the guys who buy the hook. If you are so unsure about your wagers, why even make them? Here is a little rule for you alleged experts to remember. If the book allows you to buy the hook, it must be profitable for the book in the long run. How many of you guys in here have already lost nearly one full wager on hook buying? People conviently forget about those losses, which normally amount to well over a game. Pick the games that you are relatively sure about and forget the rest of them. I took onnly 3 bowl games this season. Utah has already won. I also have Boston College and Arizona State. One more win and I hit for 62% on the bowl season. None of you will hit for that kind of profit if you play every game. The guys who pick and choose will have gthe best chance of winning everything while the guys who wager on every game will have the most opportunity to cry about tough beats. At any rate, have a Happy Holiday season and try not to take these gaes too seriously. No one will rememmber the results of 80% of them by next June."
After Utah won, you said the only other games you were playing were Boston College (Loser) and Arizona St (Loser). So you are 1-2 on Bowl games. How has playing fewer games worked out for ya? Not very well.
Those who wager on every game, like my buddy, don't have the most opportunity to cry about tough beats. They have the most opportunity to make money. If you know what you're doing, playing more games is an advantage, not a disadvantage.
Instead of coming here time and time again like the all knowing, something you clearly aren't, remember your 1-2 season and the beating you took hammering fewer games.
