Boise State at Oregon picks and predictions
Prediction
Oregon 42, Boise State 24
Moneyline
PASS.
Obviously, it is never a smart bet to take -910, which is why you should focus on the spread for this game.
Against the spread
BET BOISE STATE +18.5 (-110).
Over/Under
BET OVER 60.5 (-106).
Boise State has been hitting the Over regularly, doing so in their last 4 games and 7 of their last 10. They dropped 56 points in Week 1 against Georgia Southern, so they clearly know how to find the end zone.
As for Oregon, their offense might’ve stumbled a bit in Week 1, but that’s likely just shaking off the rust. With a Heisman hopeful running the show, they’re bound to get back on track. In their 3 meetings with Boise, the total has gone Over twice, both times surpassing 60 points. Expect plenty of scoring in this game.
