Boise State 11-1 (8-4 ATS) is a big favorite over Utah 10-2 (7-4-1 ATS) in tonight's Las Vegas Bowl. One reason for the big number is Boise State's defense. The ponies are ranked 4th in the nation in both scoring defense (13.6 ppg) and total defense (259.3 ypg). They are ranked 6th against the run (103.5 ypg) which could be a major problem for Utah.
Utah quarterback Jordan Wynn will miss the game due to a shoulder injury placing more emphasis on the running game to take pressure off backup quarterback Terrance Cain. If Boise shuts down the running game, then it could be a long night for the sub quarterback.
Look for a big night from Boise's QB who has thrown for 3506 yards, 33 touchdowns and only 5 interceptions. With a strong defense to support the offense, I think Boise State rolls tonight.
