COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Colorado State enters at 2-4 and has lost four straight, but its games have been high-scoring throughout the season, with the Rams allowing 43.2 points per game and 530.3 yards per game. San Diego State sits at 3-4, is 2-1 in conference play, and comes in off a win, but it has also been vulnerable defensively, allowing 33.3 points and 449.0 yards per game. Colorado State’s 0-2 road mark and San Diego State’s 3-1 home record create some tension in the side market, yet the clearest common thread is how often both teams have been involved in higher-scoring outcomes.
Colorado State and San Diego State set up as a game with clear scoring upside because both defenses have been allowing too many yards and points for the current market to fully account for it. Colorado State has been one of the most over-friendly teams on the board, and San Diego State has also leaned that way more often than not. The projection is Colorado State 36, San Diego State 31, which supports an over position and a home team win in a game that should feature enough explosive gains and red-zone chances to clear the projected total.
