UTEP and Fresno St. will meet in the “New Mexico Bowl” at 2:15 EST. They have Fresno favored by 11 to 12 points at most books and that is way too many points to lay with a Mountain West team in a non conference matchup. The Bulldogs have only played one game where they were 10 to 20 point favorites and squeaked by Hawaii 27-24 back in October. UTEP is (6-2 ATS) in their L8 games with 2 weeks off while Fresno St. is (1-3 ATS) in their L4 games with 2 weeks off and are (1-6 ATS) following a road win. I believe Fresno St. wins this game but not by double digits, grab the points with UTEP.
Pick: UTEP +11.5
