Stop the presses, Fresno State is 6-0 ATS this season. \u00a0Clearly they are doing much better than expected, including playing Oregon closer than anybody else (sort of…they backed into a cover after being down 35-6). \u00a0 <\/p>\n
Fresno State Bulldogs (4-2) vs #22 Boise State Broncos (4-1) ATS Matchup Stats<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Gambling Insight!<\/a> |\u00a0Buy Ray’s Picks!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n These Bulldogs are not BCS buster material but they will give you a game and know how to put points on the board.<\/p>\n I think they can be a live dog at Boise which isn\u2019t the same Boise we are used to.<\/p>\n Fresno has been averaging just a smidge under 40ppg with QB Derek Carr among national leaders in passing yards – 6th.<\/p>\n That has provided great balance to their attack with diminutive running back Robbie Rouse churning out yards just like he did last season (9th in yards).<\/p>\n The defense has been alright too, failing only to contain Oregon and Tulsa – both on the road and both losses.<\/p>\n The Bulldogs have been getting their clock cleaned by Boise for years. \u00a0In three of the last 4 years the spread has been greater than 3 TDs which shows the difference in the level of these clubs over that time.<\/p>\n This year they are far closer but showing up to win on the blue turf is a challenge for any opponent, even one who is familiar with the environment.<\/p>\n College football is the one major sport sill dependant upon rankings, and as a result perception. \u00a0When the Broncos were really good most probably underrated but it is hard to tell if that is still the case now.<\/p>\n Boise\u2019s one loss was to Michigan State on the road. \u00a0No shame there but wins over BYU and New Mexico by a combined 4 points have many scratching their chins. [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n Can this team play like we became accustomed to and dominate again like they did against Southern Miss last week?<\/p>\n Considering who he replaced to you have to give new QB Joe Southwick some credit. \u00a0Still this team is not the offensive juggernaut we are used to seeing. \u00a0\u00a0Lucky for them they are a top defensive team giving up just 15ppg. \u00a0They have yet to tangle with a team I would consider as having a really good offense though.<\/p>\n Fresno State may give them some problems with their balance and overall talent.<\/p>\n We got so used to seeing the Broncos dominate, covering big number after big number, making it hard to evaluate them this year.<\/p>\n The likelihood is that this team will get better as the season progresses but I think they are ripe from some disappointment this week unless the surroundings spook the Bulldogs.<\/p>\n Spread Pick: \u00a0Fresno State +7.5<\/strong> Bulldogs vs Broncos NCAA Football Spread\/Handicapping Stop the presses, Fresno State is 6-0 ATS this season. \u00a0Clearly they are doing much better than expected, including playing Oregon closer than anybody else (sort of…they backed into a cover after being down 35-6).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":180,"featured_media":40761,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[15019,37359,324,325,32574,56726,5352,766,770,3039],"class_list":["post-55918","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ncaa-football","tag-boise-st-broncos","tag-bulldogs-vs-broncos","tag-college-football-odds","tag-college-football-picks","tag-fresno-st-bulldogs","tag-fresno-st-bulldogs-vs-boise-st-broncos","tag-fresno-st-vs-boise-st","tag-ncaa-football-lines","tag-ncaa-football-predictions","tag-week-7"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55918","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55918"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55918\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":56188,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55918\/revisions\/56188"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40761"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55918"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55918"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55918"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
