Colorado State vs UTSA Prediction
UTSA has shown us more up to this point with competitive games against Texas A&M and Texas State, so it’s right the Roadrunners are favored. Colorado State has been underwhelming through two games and has had major issues offensively. However, Colorado State is at home and has had extra time to prepare.
I find value in free points with home teams that have the rest advantage. Also, UTSA is 131st in pass defense and 121st in scoring defense, and I don’t love laying points with struggling defenses on the road. I’ll take a shot with Colorado State and the points.
