Good offensive teams playing at home often face overlays because that is where the public resides most frequently. The oddsmakers know this, so they usually bump the line on the dog, and Portland State finds themselves in a favorable spot. The Vikings have played a heavyweight schedule with three Pac-10 teams, St. Mary's, and a solid Wright State team already played. Their record looks bad, but the elements on the team look good. They have a go-to player in Dominic Waters as well as a group of players that can shoot well enough to keep them in this one. They have been good vs. WAC competition, having landed the cash in four of their last five, as well as four of five vs. the Broncos. I'll take the overlay here and go with Portland State.
