The Nevada Wolf Pack aren’t a team I’m thrilled to back in the favorite role, considering they’re 7-16 against the spread on the season. However, things are even worse for the San Jose State Spartans, a team that loses by an average of 7.2 points on the season and 14.6 points in the underdog role. San Jose State even loses at home by an average of 2.4 points. Cant do it. It’s Nevada or pass for me.
