They are also efficient against the spread with a 5-3 record, while on the flip side, UNLV has three consecutive losses and are just 3-5 against the spread this season, while being much weaker than Stanford defensively, allowing 14.2 points per game more. I expect the hosts to get the job done in this one, so take Stanford and lay the points.
