UNLV has a history of finding ways to lose and it did so again last week in a 34-30 loss to Air Force after leading by 27 points. The Rebels led 27-0 late in the first half and then were outscored 34-3 the rest of the way. This is believed to be the biggest blown lead in school history and it comes after a 41-10 blowout loss to San Diego State and in the same season as the biggest upset by point spread in history when the Rebels lost to Howard as a 45-point favorite in the season opener. Air Force had lost four in a row and Rebels quarterback Armani Rogers was only 12-of-27 for 145 yards with no touchdowns and an interception. The Rebels now are 3-7 ATS their last 10 October games. Utah State looks to bounce back from a 28-23 loss to Wyoming even though it held the Cowboys to just 2.4 yards per carry. Jordan Love and Kent Myers combined to complete 19-of-38 passes for 203 yards. UNLV's penchant for blowing games makes it difficult to lay points. Play Utah State.
