Total: 67.50 | -110.00 Over
Result: Win
This is a 10* O/U SCORPION on the UNDER between Washington State and Nevada.

The general betting public loves hammering the OVER on Prime Time College Football and NFL games, this particular one is no different, the total opened at 64 and has since climbed to 67 (I personally have 64); regardless, I still really like this play, while both of these teams put up some pretty big numbers last week, I think they'll have a much harder time moving the ball tonight and look for this game to sneak UNDER the number as the game comes down the stretch. Washington State QB Connor Halliday had 532 yards and five TDs in his team's 41-38 loss to Rutgers. Nevada QB Cody Fajardo threw for 303 yards in a 28-19 win over Southern Utah. Certainly the Cougars can't be happy in with the way they lost, we can expect an added emphasis put on ball control and on the defensive end of the field as they were outscored 10 in the fourth quarter and would give up the go-ahed TD with 3:24 left after River Cracraft muffed a fair catch in the closing minutes. WSU obviously struggled on the defensive side of the ball, but the expected return of LB Cyrus Coen, who was out last week with injury and who is the team's leading tackler the last two seasons, will definitely help things out in that department as he was back at practice this week and has been cleared to go (note that WSU will be focused here for sure, it was caught off-guard on the very first play of the game, surrenduring a 78-yard TD pass on the first play from scrimmage). Nevada looked decent on the offensive side of the ball I thought last week, it would take a 7-0 lead into halftime vs. Southern Utah before extending that mark to 28-6 early in the fourth; there was a bit of a defensive lapse late, but the unit will be forced to be on its toes throughout this one against the explosive Cougars offense. The ground game looked good for the Wolf Pack, RB Don Jackson would finish with 110 rushing yards and a TD. It definitely remains to be seen though if Nevada can continue its success on third down, it went a superb 14 for 22 vs. Southern Utah. I think all the situational and motivational factors are in place for a lower-scoring affair, so lets move onto some strong O/U trends in this spot, note that Washington State has seen the total go UNDER the number in eight of its last 11 away from friendly confines, while Nevada has seen it dip below the posted number in seven of its last 11 in front of the home town crowd. So that means that the situation, the numbers and the trends all do indeed clearly point to the UNDER as the sharp wager in this contest.
