WAC Saturday

[WACed]

UTAH ST. -16 vs Idaho........1*
UTAH ST.(13-5, 4-0WAC) plays host to IDAHO(4-12, 1-4WAC) as UtahSt. looks to continue their strong conference play. Idaho will be playing it's 3rd straight road game, lossing the first two 69-53@Fresno St and 69-61@Nevada. Utah St. comes into this game after a big home win vs Boise St. 82-78. While Idaho was able to playing solid against Nevada in their last game, I don't see that being the case tonight as they will be playing against a Utah St. team that has established themselves as the best team in the WAC thus far in the season. Utah St. should handle Idaho here tonight and I see them pulling away early to a 20+ point win.

LOUISIANA TECH +20.5 @ New Mexico St. ..........1*
NEW MEXICO ST.(9-10, 3-1WAC) will be facing the only team with out a conference win,LOUISIANA TECH(3-12, 0-3WAC). While I don't see this game being Techs first conference win I do think they are getting a few to many points here. NMSU has only been a double digit favorite one other time this year against CalDavis and they where unable to cover the 17point spread, only winning by 10. Both teams will be playing this game on a full weeks rest and I think that time may have helped Louisiana Tech try to get this turned around. Louisian Tech will be playing it's 3rd straight conference road game losing the previous 2 straight up, but covering the spread in both, I think this game plays out similarly to the previous 2.

BOISE ST. +6 @ Nevada..........2*
NEVADA (10-6, 2-1WAC) will be playing a BOISE ST.(12-5, 3-2WAC)team coming off a tough road loss @Utah St. Despite the loss to UtahSt., Boise has been a solid road team thus far this season going 4-2. Nevada appears to have turned things around this year after a rough start to the season, despite that I still think Boise is the better team and although they are on the road again, I think this game will be similar to the UtahSt. game and I expect a very close high scoring game with the 6 points coming into play.

HAWAII -2 vs Fresno St. ..........2*
HAWAII (6-10, 2-2WAC) will be playing FRESNO ST(9-9, 2-2WAC). This is a tough spot for Fresno coming off a road loss 2 days ago and now having to travel to the islands to play a Hawaii team w/ 5 days rest. Fresno has struggled on the road all year going 2-7. This one should be another close game, but I'm going to roll w/ Hawaii @home.



A few others, no write ups for these ones:
DUKE -8 vs Clemson......1*
TULANE -15.5 vs Rice......1*
