Boise State at Troy

Boise State got back on track and won the Mountain West Championship finishing 11-3, and the Broncos return 16 starters featuring quarterback Brett Rypien, who completed 62.6 percent of his passes for 2,877 yards and 16 touchdowns with only six interceptions. Alexander Mattison also returns at running back after averaging 5.1 yards per carry. Boise State went 8-5-1 ATS while capping off the season with a 38-28 win over Oregon as a seven-point underdog in the Las Vegas Bowl. The Broncos beat Troy, 24-13, last September and covered as a 10.5-point favorite. Troy comes off an 11-2 season, but it loses starting quarterback Brandon Silvers and top running back Jordan Chunn. Also, the Trojans return only five on defense and just two on the line. Kaleb Barker and Sawyer Smith will compete for the starting QB job, but both have limited experience. Troy is 1-7 ATS its last eight home games, and Boise State is 6-1 ATS its last seven road games. Also, the Broncos have covered the number their last four games versus Sun Belt teams, the Trojans are 1-4 ATS their last five September games, and 2-5 ATS their last seven non-conference games. Lay the points with Boise State.
