I like Lousianna Tech with the points against Nevada. They have come on strong in their last two outings and I like the momentum on offense they will bring into this game.
La Tech plus the points @ Nevada is a good play. Hawaii’s fast paced spread was completely shut down last week in Ruston. Nevada did put up other-worldly numbers against the Runnin’ Rebels, but honestly, when was the last time UNLV could run the ball? Nevada will score, but Tech’s Daniel Porter is a very tough running back and will keep the Wolfpack’s high octane offense on the sidelines.
