Trends

Colorado State is 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games overall and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 road gmaes while the over is 7-0 in their last 7 games overall. Wyoming is 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games overall and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games against a team with a road winning percentage below .400 while the over is 5-0 in their last 5 games overall.

Pick

If Wyoming were at full strength for this game, then I could make the case for the Cowboys, as they have some talented pieces like Thompson, Maldonado and even Ike (who was instrumental in a lot of Wyoming’s success last season), but without those guys, it leaves a lot of the heavy lifting to be done by guys who aren’t used to shouldering that load, especially when Colorado State’s on the other side at nearly full strength. All in all, I think the Rams just get the job done here, so I’ll back the Rams on the road here.
