Wyoming at UNLV: Three things to know

  1. Wyoming hasn’t played since Nov. 5, having its past two scheduled games (vs. Air Force and Utah State) wiped out due to COVID-related issues in their opponent’s football programs. UNLV is in the same boat, as COVID issues within its program forced a cancellation of its game against Colorado State last week.
  2. Wyoming is the only one of these two programs to taste victory this season, dropping Hawaii 31-7 Oct. 30 in its lone home game so far. The Cowboys are 0-2 SU/ATS on the road this season, averaging 29.0 PPG and allowing 35.5 PPG, both Over results.
  3. UNLV was doubled up 34-17 at San Jose State last time out on Nov. 14, and it is 0-4 SU/0-3-1 ATS overall while yielding at least 34 points in every game to date.

Wyoming at UNLV: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Wyoming 45, UNLV 19

Money line (ML)

Wyoming (-667) has struggled on the road this season, but it should find plenty of success in Vegas against a UNLV (+480) team which has been a disaster. Still, you can’t put up more than seven times your potential return. AVOID, and look to the spread.

Against the spread (ATS)

WYOMING -16 (-110) is the best play on the board here, even if the Cowboys haven’t covered the number in two previous road games so far this season. The Cowboys run the ball effectively, averaging 184.3 yards per game on the ground, led by RB Xazavian Valladay’s 397 rushing yards. The Rebels been gouged for 213.3 rushing YPG and 36.3 PPG. This one won’t be pretty for the home side.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 51.5 (-110) is a great play. The Cowboys will look to mash the Rebels on the ground, with several helpings of touchdowns along the way. The Rebels just haven’t offered a lot of resistance defensively, so bettors should find the points copious in this one.

Wyoming at Colorado State: Three things to know

  1. Wyoming rebounded after a narrow 37-34 overtime loss at Nevada in its opener to push past a solid Hawaii team at home 31-7 as a 2.5-point underdog. The Cowboys outgained the Warriors 393 to 233 last week, and they doubled them up 24-12 in first downs.
  2. Wyoming dominated last week’s game in time of possession by a 38:15 to 21:45 margin, riding the coattails of RB Xazavian Valladay for 163 rushing yards and two touchdowns. He is a big star, and picked up the slack with backup QB Levi Williams under center.
  3. Colorado State was rubbed out at Fresno State last week, getting torched 38-17 in a game it was never in. The Rams did a good job against the run, something they’ll need to do against the Cowboys, allowing just 84 yards to Fresno. However, the Bulldogs dinged them for 348 yards through the air. Dual-threat QB Todd Centeio completed just 10 of 23 passes for 141 yards and he ran for 80 yards.

Wyoming at Colorado State: Odds, prediction, betting lines and picks

Prediction

Wyoming 31, Colorado State 20

Money line (ML)

WYOMING (-167) is down to Williams under center after QB Sean Chambers had season-ending surgery. So, the Cowboys will rely on the back of Valladay and the run game. Colorado State (+140) did a good job against Fresno State last week on the ground, but that’s mostly because the Bulldogs were doing whatever they wanted through the air. Head coach Steve Addazio has a lot of work to do to whip these Rams into shape, and they’ll be no match for the Cowboys in this one.

Against the spread (ATS)

WYOMING (-3.5, -110) likely would be around a touchdown favorite on the road if Chambers were under center, but he’s not. It won’t make much difference, though, as Wyoming has the best player on either side, and Valladay will make his presence felt like he did against Hawaii last week. The Cowboys are 14-6 ATS in their past 20 games as favorites, and 5-1 ATS in the past six as road favorites, so the6 have the Rams right where they want them. The Cowboys are also 4-1 ATS in the past five trips to Fort Collins, and 4-0 ATS in the previous four meetings.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 52.5 (-110) is a strong play for a number of reasons. First off, Wyoming’s offense threw a blanket on a high-octane Hawaii offense last week, allowing just seven points. HC Craig Bohl’s defense was on fire in its first victory. Secondly, Centeio is very shaky under center and inaccurate. Plus, Wyoming likes to keep it on the ground and chew clock with Valladay, which is also in Under bettors’ favor.
