Utah St Vs Boise St

5 Star Play

I have not designated a game as a 5 star play lately however I am very confident on this one.

Utah St +38 vs Boise St.

In just about any sport at the collegiate level (even pros) we have seen a team have a devastating loss and then suffer the inevitable let down the following game. I used this angle earlier after Missouri (11/6) lost their first game and came out flat against a lesser team the following week.

Boise's loss last week was about as devastating as you can get in the regular season. Every week they had a spotlight on them and were constantly the source of debate. Now they are not playing for the national championship and really can't even be the best team in the WAC! That is a serious fall for this team.

Utah St has had their moments this year and has everything to gain in this game. They will be fired up to beat Boise and head into the offseason on a high note and position themselves as a contender next year in the WAC.

I really think that Utah St can win this game outright and if by chance Boise can bounce back and play well there will be little motivation to put up a lot of points. If Boise does cover then we can officially say the Boise St coach is the greatest motivator of all time. But we have all seen it too many times that it is next to impossible to suffer a terrible loss and be able to avoid the inevitable letdown.
