Wise Guy
(NCAAF) BYU vs. Boise State,
Point Spread: -6.50 | -104.00 Boise State (Home)
Result: Win
Friday Night Game of the Year

BYU has shown the importance of a QB getting drilled in all three games since losing their starting QB. Under Christian Stewart they are 0-3 straight up losing against the spread by 36, 4.5, and 17. They had two ugly wins and spread losses by nine points each before that. They have lost five straight where it counts by an average of 13.5 points per game.

Boise State starts only five seniors on offense and defense. But what does this usually mean? Young teams play better at home and as the year goes on. And now they are home where they are 3-0 straight up and 2-1 to the number.

The higher they go, the harder they fall. BYU was the chic non-power conference team that many thought could spoil the party. That came shattering after a losing their star QB dark horse Heisman Trophy candidate Taysom and the Cougars have not been able to regroup.
