T.M. Selection: Nevada.

I like Nevada to cover the spread against Fresno State on Saturday. Nevada has surprisingly impressed in their games this season and is turning out to be a much better team than everyone thought they would be at the beginning of the season. They only have 1 loss this season but they have been playing well ever since Kansas State handed them that loss. They have put up 30+ points in all of their games since then winning each of those by 10+ points. Carson Strong has been leading the passing game for them and he has been great with 9 TD passes and only 1 interception in his last 3 games. Fresno State started their season with some positives but they have started to look shaky in their games lately. They won against a very bad UNLV team but they only took that game by 8 points and they gave up 30 points in that game to a UNLV team that has struggled heavily on offense all year. Then in their next game they blow a lead to Hawaii and end up losing that game by 3. Then in their last game they finally fixed their troubles on defense with a shutout over Wyoming, but they only managed to put up 17 points in that game struggling to get anything done on offense in that game. Fresno State has been too inconsistent to trust lately and Nevada looks like they are coming for the Mountain West title. This game will be huge for both teams for that reason and I think Nevada is good enough to even win this game. I like Nevada to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 30-27 Nevada.
