Colorado State vs Nevada Prediction
Last time out, Colorado State continued their march to being worst team in the FBS, with a 41-10 home loss to Sacramento State. Colorado State never led their FCS opponents in what was a new low for this Rams team. Two different Rams receivers combined to go 13/22 for 178 yards, one touchdown, and zero interception on the day. Troy Horton hauled in three balls for 127 yards, a 42.3 average, and one touchdown in the loss. Defensively, the Rams allowed 395 total yads and forced one Hornets interception.
Nevada visited the Air Force Falcons and left with a 48-20 blowout loss. Air Force led 14-0 after the first quarter and 24-7 at the half. The Falcons put the game away in the third quarter as they went on a 17-0 run to build a 41-7 lead heading into the final quarter. Nate Cox went 12/20 for 130 yards, zero touchdowns, zero interception, and added one touchdown on the ground. Nevada ran the ball 18 times for 112 yards, a 6.2 average, and three touchdowns in the loss. Defensively, the Wolf Pack allowed 541 total yards and did not force any Air Force turnovers.
Series History: Nevada has won two consecutive meetings, dating back to 2018, but Colorado State still leads the all-time series 12-5.
Pick: I am not sure how anyone can put money on this winless Colorado State team. I’ll go with Nevada to get the job done against a bad team at home. For more College Football picks check out our College Football betting section.
