Boise State vs. Washington Prediction: 2025 LA Bowl Odds & Best Bet

My best Boise State vs. Washington prediction based on the opening odds for the LA Bowl focuses on the consistent offenses of these two teams. Without any notable opt-outs at this time, Washington is an 8.5-point betting favorite for Saturday’s LA Bowl. Kickoff from SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., is at 8 p.m. ET (ABC).

The Over is one of my favorite early picks and, using the latest College bowl game odds, I break down below why I expect this to be a high-scoring affair.

Over 52.5 (-110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Washington allows just 103.5 rushing yards per game. While this will certainly impact a Boise State offense averaging 188.4 rushing yards per game, the Broncos have a well-balanced offense attack, which is also averaging 244.3 passing yards per game.

Washington has topped 40 points in three of its last five games. If Demond Williams Jr. plays, then I don’t know how Boise State’s defense, which has allowed at least 21 in three consecutive games, will slow down an offensive unit that managed 414.5 total yards and 33.8 points per game against Big Ten competition.

Finally, Maddux Madsen returned for Boise State for the Mountain West Championship, and the Broncos have scored at least 24 in seven of his nine games.

When making my college football predictions for this week's bowl games, I'm taking FanDuel’s price of -110. That number implies a 52.38% chance that this Boise State vs. Washington prediction hits. A $10 bet would profit $9.09.

Boise State vs. Washington line movement

Movement for this game will likely come down to which players ultimately opt out. As of the time of writing, neither team has any significant opt-outs, so we may see these teams play at nearly full strength.

If both teams have all their key players, I expect the spread to shrink to 7.5 or possibly 7, as the Broncos have won three consecutive games, while Washington has lost two of its last four, including to Wisconsin. And the Over should get some love, as both teams are averaging over 31 points per game.
