College Football Bowl Predictions 2016: Picks Against the Spread, Odds & Best Bets Week 2

No. 3 Colorado State Over Idaho


Bowl: Famous Idaho Potatoes Bowl


Date: Thursday, December 22, 2016


Spread: Colorado State by 13


Outlook: Colorado State finished the season strong with wins over New Mexico and San Diego State who both made bowl games. Idaho enters this matchup as nearly a two touchdown underdog despite playing inside the state. I like Colorado to win the game but expect Idaho to hang around. The OddsShark computer agrees with its projections of a 39.3-28.3 Colorado State victory. The S&P+ projections are more bullish as it gives Colorado State an 85% chance of winning the matchup.
