Colorado State vs South Florida Prediction

South Florida has failed to cover 7 of its last 10 games, and it’s been getting killed on the defensive end whenever playing a decent team. USF almost messed around and lost to Western Kentucky. Colorado State has the offensive depth to give USF fits, and it’s covered 8 of its last 10 games. One team cashes tickets, the other doesn’t. One team doesn’t defend, the other can score at an above average clip. This should be a win for Colorado State. I’ll lay the bucket.
