Nevada is 10-2-1 ATS in their last 13 home games and 17-7-2 ATS in their last 26 games overall while the over is 5-1 in their last 6 games following an ATS win.
Pick
I’m sticking with Nevada in this one. The Wolf Pack have been a strong team at home this season and Air Force’s offense just hasn’t been able to hold it’s own in recent games. I just feel like this is one of those games that’s tight early but Nevada pulls away over the course of the game to get a big double-digit win so give me the Wolf Pack laying the points.
