Bet on Grand Canyon vs. Boise State

These two have no recent meetings to consider tonight. Boise State has covered the spread in five straight home games and faces a Grand Canyon team that hasn’t had a lot of tough competition. The Broncos should be prepared for this game. Grand Canyon has been a good defensive team, but Boise State can solve the puzzle of this unit and do enough to cover the spread. The public betting is backing Boise State and I agree.
