Boise State vs New Mexico Prediction
In this Boise State vs New Mexico Prediction, New Mexico is coming as -5.5 home favorites. New Mexico has been the better team this season and have been almost perfect at home, with just one loss in 13 home games played, but both teams have been in excellent form lately. New Mexico is 8-2 in its last 10 games but 1-4 against the spread, while Boise State is 5-1 in its last 6 games and 4-2 against the spread, so I see no value on either side. Both teams are 16-3 to the over in their last 19 games combined, as both offenses have caught fire lately, so I expect a high-scoring affair. Take the over 153.5 points in this one.
