Wyoming vs Fresno State Prediction

The current betting odds have Fresno State listed as a 15 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Fresno State has been very dominant this season as they usually are. They are in line to go to the MWC Championship and they only have the 1 loss in their conference games, but they still need a win in this game to clinch their spot in the Finals and they will do so here with a big performance. Wyoming has put together a really good season this year at 7-4 but they do not have as much talent as Fresno State has and Wyoming hasn't been a good road team this year either. Fresno State is a really good team and it is tough to play against them at home as they put up a ton of points in their games. Wyoming doesn't score a lot of points when they are on the road and if they fall behind early in this game, they won't be able to pull off a comeback here. Fresno State still has to secure their spot in the MWC Championship game and they will come with their best effort here. The best way to place a bet here is on Fresno State to cover the spread in this game.
 
Wyoming Fresno State Prediction:  Our NCAAF Pick for Friday, November 25, 2022 (10:00 pm ET start time) is Fresno State 41 Wyoming 20.

Notable Quotes

 
“Holani is one of the most competent rushers in our conference, so when the ball came out, I was astounded. You see DeVonne running, and I thought he was going to score for a while. If they wouldn’t have had that athletic quarterback he probably would have.” - Craig Bohl after his team’s loss against BSU in their last game.
 
 
"They can be dangerous. They play hard. They have capabilities. They have a really good running back and a couple of good receivers. They are capable of scoring points. I think it is senior day for them, and that always brings a lot of emotions for any team so I think that they will be fired up for that. We are going to have to bring our best game in order to be successful ... The purpose in November continues to be magnified, so then it comes down to preparation and commitment and how we prepare and what we do." - Jeff Tedford on his team’s upcoming game against Nevada this week.
