San Diego County Poinsettia Bowl

First game bowl to take the dog on the money line.

5 Star Pick

San Diego St +2.5

Lean

SD St/BYU under 49

The Aztecs seemed to get off to a pretty rough start this year losing to San Jose St however as the season played out, that loss was not so bad. Meanwhile after the rough start the Aztecs got on a real roll and quietly won out. BYU came into the season facing a challenging schedule with pretty high hopes. The Cougars had some signature wins as well as some pretty bad losses.

The Aztecs will be playing essentially in front of a home crowd buzzing around the excitement around the football and basketball programs, expect that to be a factor. BYU has struggled away from home and I expect that to continue in this game. The BYU defense has been stout all season however they will need their offense to carry the load in this game and that will not happen against an Aztec defense that will be able to shut down their run game and force turnovers when BYU is forced to throw.

Besides taking the points, take the Aztecs on the money line +140 to sweeten the pot.
