The Wolf Pack are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games and 17-8 ATS in their last 25 games overall. The Rams are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 home games and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The over is 7-3 in Wolf Pack last 10 games overall. The over is 7-3 in Rams last 10 conference games. The home team is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 meetings.

The Nevada Wolf Pack are simply the better team here, with a top-25 scoring offense and the fourth best passing offense. The Colorado State Rams look like they gave up on the season a little over a month ago, as the defense is getting worse and the offense that’s now 95th in scoring is struggling to finish drives. Maybe senior night breaks Colorado State out of this funk, but I doubt it. I’ll lay the reasonable chalk with the Wolf Pack.
