Nevada Wolf Pack at San Diego State Aztecs Overview
Nevada Wolf Pack
The Wolf Pack snapped a two-game losing streak straight up and against the spread last Saturday in a 21-10 win over the visiting New Mexico Lobos. The Wolf Pack opened as a six-point favorite before they were bet down to a 3.5-point at kick-off. Regardless of where they were taken, Nevada took their backers straight to the cash lane.
San Diego State Aztecs
The Aztecs come into this contest on the heels of a bye. Previous to their week off, San Diego State edged out Nevada’s arch-rival UNLV on the road in a thrilling 20-17 win. San Diego State failed to cover, closing as a 10.5-point favorite. Failing to do so, ended a three-game ATS winning streak for SDSU.
Reasons To Back Nevada Wolf Pack
The “Wolf Pack are 0-3-1 ATS in the last four meetings in San Diego; The Favorite is 4-0-1 ATS in the last five contests; The Home Team is 4-1-1 ATS in the last six games”. These are several trends that will hard-sell the Aztecs in this spot and position them to be overvalued; so far, much of the consensus has bitten. 75% of the public like the Aztecs in this spot, and that leads me to believe that Nevada may be supremely undervalued as a result. Moreover, with Nevada boding just a 3-5-1 ATS record on the season, the Pack are more likely to take back a soft number, albeit takers will be disenchanted with their performance in terms of profits. This is where I urge backers to step in on the boys from Reno. Lest we forget, Nevada beat this team head-up last year so it won’t come into this affair with the mindset of an 18-point underdog. I expect Nevada to have a lot of swagger and ready to bring the fight to SDSU.
Reasons To Avoid San Diego State Aztecs
With a top-25 ranking next to their name, added pressure and attention will be paid to San Diego State. They are no longer just another team in the Mountain West but a prime target for some of the other constituents to fix their sight on. As a result of their ranking, the Aztecs are primed to lay an inflated number that often comes with a ranked team facing a non-ranked opponent. In addition to all of the aforementioned, the Aztecs are one of the “name-brand” teams in the Mountain West Conference. Not too long ago, SDSU was a two-time defending champion, and with their present body of work, expectations build and overreactions surmount. The line reflects that.
