The BYU offense has really struggled at #126 in total yards averaging 109.2 yards rushing and 192.6 yards passing. Starting QB Tanner Mangum has more interceptions than touchdowns, and for the season four QBs have combined for 10 TDs, 15 picks. On the road, the Cougars are averaging 17 points. BYU is on a 13-4 run UNDER the total, including 7-1 UNDER away. They are also 21-5 UNDER after getting more than 200 yards rushing in their previous game. They head to a dynamite Fresno State defense, #19 in points allowed (18.6 ppg), #16 in total yards. That's even more impressive when you realize they allowed 41 and 48 points at Alabama and Washington, but have held their other five opponents to 0, 21, 10, 0, 26 and 3 points. Fresno State beat up San Diego State 27-3, taking a strong hold on first place in the West Division of the Mountain West. SDSU had a good opening drive, then the Aztecs generated only 172 yards on their nine possessions the rest of the way, going three and out five times. At home the Bulldogs are holding teams to 11.8 points per game. Fresno State is on an 8-3 run UNDER the total and this total is too high. Play the UNDER.
