Idaho vs Montana Prediction

In this Idaho vs Montana Prediction, Montana is coming as -2.5 home favorites. Both teams have almost identical overall records this season and exactly 13 total wins, but both have not been in good form lately, as Montana is coming off back-to-back wins where it failed to cover the spread, and Idaho is 1-3 in its last 4 games and 1-4 against the spread, so I cannot pick a side in this matchup. Both teams are 12-4 to the under in their last 16 games combined, as both offenses have been unstable as of late. Take the under 152 points in this one.
