BOISE STATE BRONCOS VS. COLORADO STATE RAMS BETTING CONCLUSION

These teams have split the past six meetings, while also going 3-3 ATS. Four of the past five games has been decided by single digits, including the overtime game in Boise last month.

Boise State doesn't have anything to play for here, having already locked up the regular-season title. Colorado State is playing at home on Senior Day, they're still jockeying for seeding in the MWC Tournament, and they will have a lot more energy playing in front of a boisterous crowd in Fort Collins. Look for Colorado State to complete the regular-season sweep, and it might be a little bit lopsided.
