Wyoming won the last game, but this game won’t be as good. The offense for the two teams has been similar, but the difference has been with the defense. Nevada is averaging 76.2 points and they are going to have no issue running up the score against the Wyoming defense that is giving up 75.3 points per game. This game is going to get out of hand early, and it will be Nevada that finds success. Back Nevada against the spread.
