Sacramento State is 13-3 against the spread in their last 16 games played on Thursday. The under is 10-4-1 in Sacramento State’s last 15 road games. The over is 17-4 in Idaho State’s last 21 games against the Big Sky. The over is 6-2 in Idaho State’s last eight home games.

At home I expect Idaho State to push the pace and I also expect Sacramento State to play up to that faster pace. Look for both teams to find offensive success and this game is going to go well over the posted total.
