Can Boise St cover the e score spread ? Opened -20 up to -22.5 in some spots. Boise has been looking feirce and powerful.
Louisiana Tech has covered 4 out of 5 at home vs Boise in last 5 meetings. Is there any thoughts on this line being over inflated here or are people thinking Boise will run away with it even sans the smurf turf? Seems like a big number.
La tech has played 3 games at home averaging 40 pts 515 yards while keeping their opponents to 8.7 points and less than 250 yards.HOWEVER those foes were Nicholas St, Hiawaii, and New Mexico St------nobody to really care about. Boise comes into town on a mission. They are trying to get the best chance of a better bcs bowl and will try to beat La Tech by as many "style points" they can.
Boise on the road has been averaging 45.7 points with a QB percentage of nearly 70% !! Rushing for 6.5 yds per carry and throwing for over 10 yrds per pass. Imo they havent played anyone decent either but should handle LA Tech on their road to better bcs bowl.
My question to the covers community is can Boise cover the 22 or 23 point spread or is Louisana Tech a value play catching 3+ scores at home with a chance to show everyone something on friday night prime time?? I lean towards Boise What about you?

Ok seems that the covers nation is on Atlanta and the under??
Makes no sense to me. Granted thatthere is a big number here with NO-12 and 55. Let me ask why would anyone step in front of this New Orleans super offense and play Atlanta dirty birds?
New orleans has been a offensive super power covering ats in every game this season. After what they showed last week coming back and not only beating Miami but also covering the spread, why would anyone think that at home under the monday night lights would be a good time to fade the,?
And for all the under backers COMON MAN. Why would all of a sudden these teams not put up enough points? If Atlanta has any chance of covering or winning outright they will have to put up at least 28 points. The Atlanta secondary has no chance of keeping Brees and company under 35 points. Imo 35points will be up by halftime for the Saints and maybe 14 for Atlanta.
There is no way i can comfortablly put my money against New Orleans and their weapons under the Monday Night Lights at home
goodluck
NO 42- Atl 24
