BSU +4 at UW

Night-Tripper · 07-24-13, 07:00 PM

I played the Huskies when they were -3 @ -105.

consensus seems to be that people here like boise. especially if it's gone to +4.

i agree washington has more talent than any recent year and i think their OLine issues will be fixed.

first home game at renovated stadium where they have had huge HFA in the past.

still. boise overachieves like crazy and has been excellent road ATS in recent years... FYI, their home ATS which was probably one of the best long term records ever has really taken it on the chin the last 3 years. 5-13.....

Im leaning Boise ST here...I expect another winning season from Boise ST

Huckleberry Pig · 07-24-13, 09:17 PM

Another reason I lean Boise St. is I think they have the much better coach. Give Petersen that much time to prepare for someone and I like him to win or at least keep it extremely close. Guy is

wash will be ready this year..

I gotta feeling Washington is going to roll boise and that young Q.B of theirs. Too much experience on Washington side and that should be enough to seal the deal. Big play on this game. Keith Price will not turn the ball over. Mark my words, this dude is a 4th year senior with plenty of experience and will not force throws.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Boise's offense just pitiful last year when playing quality competition? MSU only 13pts, 7 of which were scored by their D, BYU only 6 pts - any reason to think they will be better on O this year?

Saw they beat WSU last year 28-26 but if WSU has a lot of guys returning I can see them taking this

Urbanwildlife · 07-27-13, 12:06 PM

My take is why play this game when there are many better options available? I just do not understand posters who want to take more risk than is necessary as money is to hard to come back for most, so you would think people would want to eliminate as much risk as possible when you are already taking a chance.

Amen Urban, I'm passing here.

I agree that Udub returns just about the entire offense and 8 on defense, but here is my problem. If they are suppose to be so good, how come they are picked to finish 4th in the Pac 12 North behind Oregon, Stanford (both understandable), and Oregon State, who returns less starters and has never come close to winning a Pac 12 title. As a matter of fact, Riley has not loss less than 4 games with Oregon State this century. If they pick Washington to finish behind Oregon State, how is UDub suppose to compete against a perrineal winner with a great HC? Boise State is 3-1 S/U and 4-0 ATS in their last four openers. They are also 6-0 S/U in their last 6 games vs the Pac 10/12. That is good enough for me. Boise State wins outright.

gojetsgomoxies · 07-27-13, 12:42 PM

kinda mixed on the oregon state comment.....

oregon state was 18th last year. but i agree that it is hard to see justifying them as much higher faves at home in corvails vs. boise (hypothetical)

washington was 45th last, much improve and good HFA..........

the way i see it is boise/washington should be a close game. so taking the 4 points is good.

CajunMoon · 07-28-13, 01:15 PM

I agree with Urban and Huck.... many better games out there to play... My gut tells me Peterson will have Boise ready but this game is very iffy!!

Who actually base their picks off of conference predictions. Really, did you start betting yesterday. Washington will be at the top of their conference this year. Bet that! And what makes you think that cant turn to 4-1 ATS in openers???

Tight game at first, but they will pull away. This is actually one of the easier games to capp. Keep pounding Boise back to +3.

i was somewhat devil's advocating washington (probably be no play for me at end of day)...

but one thing i will say is when the lines were first released, my reaction was that washington is seriously overated.... more work justified their improved repuation, but still i think often first reactions are good.

J_On_A_Roll · 08-03-13, 02:03 PM

I actually think this is a low risk game. All signs pointing to a Washington win as im watching the line movement, its showing most money is on Boise, as if its trying to get that early money in so they wont get hit too hard. I got a feeling Washington will be +100 the day of the game.

J_On_A_Roll · 08-04-13, 04:25 PM

The secondary is the only weak point i see, they gave up 11 yards per catch last season game these two faced each other. D-line was solid giving up 3.0 yards per rush for 109 yards altogether. still im leaning towards washington because they had 3 turnovers that killed them that game. Wont happen this time. statfox.com is where i got my stats.
