Experienced Boise team going against a Troy team with a new QB?

Boise run all over them? I don't know these two teams well right now.

It is an away game for Boise. Giving away 10 points to a good Troy team at home is no easy task. Boise should win, but I can see a very close game here. I would not touch this game.

I like Boise this spot...will be on my card just don't know how big.
Troy in reload mode including QB and the good D. Boise is experienced and rolling down the stretch. I see them pulling away in 2H.

Agree completely........Troy has a very good defense and are at home..........I am not playing it but would lean Troy and the points

Troy doesn't have a QB or an offense and Boise is very good on D. How can they score?

Heat/Humidity will be a factor here for Boise esp in 2nd half. I’ll be looking at 2H bets depending on how 1H goes.

Would have to say Boise -10 is the bet here. They are superior on both sides of the ball.

Not sure what the box score will say, but remember watching this game last year and Troy couldn’t do anything against the Boise defense.

^^^

And this year that same D will field the game against a "rebuilding" offense.

Like the under here a lot, last year’s game was 24-13 and 2 TDs were non offensive, including the only Troy TD, Boise’s defense should be really good and should give the Troy offense problems all game, Troy’s defense still should be decent enough to not let Boise blow them away to keep things somewhat close, if I had to pick a side it would be Boise as I think the score will be similar to last year. My somewhat educated guess is Boise 27 Troy 14 well under the 50.5 I see on the board

Good luck this season my friends

Not a bad play in week 1... Offenses need time to jell and Boise D may keep Troy under double digits here. Keep in mind, Boise returned a team that was avg 37 pt/gm last 7 weeks of season.

The line is up to 10.5. I would love to give 10 w/out paying for half a point. Hopefully it goes back down

I'd like to add to my prior post and have a questions.

I like Boise in this game and going to play them. The current line is 10.5. I dont want to buy a point.

I am hoping this line goes to 10 and am holding out on the 10.5 hoping it goes down to 10. I will play Boise anywhere up to 13.5 pts.

My question is that IF the line moves up, at what number should i lock my play in at?

Hopefully Boise wins big and its all a moot point but i have never figured out "when to give in and take a bad line that doesnt go my way"

Yeah Boise’s offense was rolling the end of last season, they did take advantage of some bad defenses there, the only good defense they played was Fresno’s twice and those 2 games they scored 17 points in each game, Troy’s defense should be pretty good still despite losing a few starters, add in the the loss of Cedrick Wilson who caught more passes than the next 2Boise players combined, the travel and the most likely heat and I expect them not to be rolling here in week 1

Good luck this season my friend

Statistically speaking it looks like 13.5 points. Here is a link to Wizard of Odds; https://wizardofodds.com/games/sports-betting/college-football/

Based on data from 1996 to 2013 games decided by 11 points or more happened 57.35% of the time. Ten points or more 59.69%. Thirteen points or more 53.74%. Fourteen points or more 49.42%. A 4.32% jump at fourteen.

I think buying the 1/2 point to 10 at -120 would be the best way to go.
