# 9 Boise State -6 @ Nevada. Both teams can put up points, no doubt, but Boise St. has a better D than Nevada. They only gave 10.3pt/game compares to Nevada 30ppg. Nevada played top ranked teams twice this year and lost big in the end. So why is Boise St. only a 6pts fav over an unranked team? Remember Penn St/Iowa game?
last year in boise it took like 3 or 4 ot's @ home ...
my first instincts were w/ nev
but after careful deliberation I think boise wins by DD
our defense is awesome this year...
our offense is a little down compared to recent years
( not being a homer... I've bet against bsu 3 times 1 win 1 loss 1 draw)
but we will be up by at least three scores @ the half...
we score a little less in the second half than the first
and for a bonus Nev is horrible @ kick returns
I predict at least 1 maybe 2 special team scores

Another piece of information, with the exception of last year's game, Boise has "owned" Nevada whether at home or on the road. Really feel that Boise's strenght has been its underrated "D" which has kept them in all of its game. Their offense has come along nicely and has recently started to peak. I think this game might have the looks of a trap but believe Boise wins going away, say 2-3 TDs. JMHO.
