Oregon State vs Boise State Prediction
Oregon State was able to snap their losing streak with a comeback win over Washington State last week, but they will have their hands full here. Boise State still only has one loss on the season and they have their eyes on a spot in the CFP. The Broncos have not been very convincing recently, as they have played three close games with Wyoming, San Jose State, and Nevada. I am not impressed with Boise State and while they have been great in picking up wins, I like Oregon State with the points here.
