UNLV comes into this game after losing two of their last three games, but is coming off of a very nice win at New Mexico. Boise State has won two games in a row and is only allowing 59.7 points against per game this year. These two teams are very evenly matched, but I am going to go with the better defensive team. Give me Boise State to win on the road.
