    Get your tinfoil hat ready

    UNLV +41 at home Saturday night against Boise State.

    I know the Broncos should win this game by 60. I know they'll be running up the score to bolster their position in the polls. But weird shit happens in Vegas with late UNLV games. Gamblers are always looking for a bailout play on Saturday night, and the way Boise State is covering spreads, this could be one of those "no brainer" games where the Rebels get a backdoor and lose by 40.

    I will be @ this game. I expect the ass whooping to start once Boise's planes land.

    The place is expected to be sold out. First time since BYU smashed them two years ago.

    I know oddsmakers have to set a line that's at least somewhat legitimate, but frankly, there's no way Boise doesn't win this game by 50-60 points. UNLV is a glorified high school team.

    With that being said, UNLV scores a fluke touchdown somewhere in the middle, then another fluke touchdown late and falls 54-14.

    UNLV is coming off an upset win against Colorado State. They are 3-3 ATS this season. Boise State is 4-3 ATS. This is a huge look ahead game for Boise State. They get TCU next week at home. This is the kind of game that Boise State just wants to win comfortabley and then get out of town. 41 is too many points, though Boise State could put 60 on UNLV easily. I just think that they will call off the dogs early in the 4th quarter. This game has back door written all over it.

    I witnessed UNLV losing to Southern "fukking" Utah. I did not know Southern Utah had a football team B4 that.

    Like I said, there's no reason to believe UNLV won't lose this game by at least 50. So with that being said Houli....

    Unlv is a team I don't bet on simply because they are in Vegas and can easily point shave.

    Trust me. The one team on the board, who you do not have to deal with point shving is UNLV's team. These guys go to numerous seminars B4 the season starts, instructing them on the trappings of bookies and the like. Also UNLV sucks, and can not control any aspect of the game especialy the score.

    On the brightside it is Homecoming. I will be in attendance as an alumnus. I will wave an SBR flag for you guys. LMAO

    LOL. Well played. Thanks for the laugh....

    But I do think UNLV is the play. Boise's kicker is 4-7 on PATs, and Boise wins 46-14.

    UNLV also beat Hawaii... not that Hawaii is any good but... I'll never forget it. 19 point underdogs ruined a ML parlay for me. LOL.
