The Nevada Wolf Pack (2-2, 0-0 MWC) and Air Force Falcons (2-1, 0-1) meet at Falcon Stadium Friday. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET (FS1). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Nevada vs. Air Force odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
Nevada dealt with a night of lightning delays during a 27-0 loss at the Iowa Hawkeyes Saturday. The game was delayed 3 times for a total of 3 hours and 56 minutes. The Wolfpack are 9-1 against the spread (ATS) in their last 10 games after an ATS loss. Friday’s game is the opener of conference play.
Air Force gave up a late TD run in a 17-14 loss at the Wyoming Cowboys Friday. The Falcons entered the Mountain West Conference opener averaging a nation-leading 508.5 rushing yards per game but were held to just 171 yards vs. Wyoming.
The Under is 5-1 in Air Force’s last 6 games vs. a team with a record above .500.

Nevada at Air Force picks and predictions
Prediction
Air Force 28, Nevada 13
Money line
PASS.
The Air Force (-3000) money line is too expensive to bet. The spread and total are better options.
Against the spread
BET NEVADA +23.5 (+100).
Take the points. Nevada should be able to bounce back after a weird game in Iowa and keep it relatively close in a low-scoring conference game.
Over/Under
BET UNDER 46.5 (-112).
While I liked the play more when the total opened at 49 at most books, the Under should still hit. Both offenses struggled in Week 3 and Air Force’s defense should look dominant playing at home on national TV.
