The Fresno State Bulldogs (2-1) host the New Mexico Lobos (0-3) on Saturday night in an all-Mountain West showdown.
Fresno State destroyed New Mexico State 48-0 last week, and now they’ll look to defeat another school from the same state.
New Mexico lost 49-15 to Auburn on the road last time out, and this weekend, they’ll be back home after two away games.
Will Fresno State make it three straight wins, or will the Lobos hold their own?

Prediction
The Lobos have been really bad defensively, and their winless season can be attributed to their holes on that side of the ball. They’ve still covered two of three games, but it’s going to be hard for their offense to keep up this level of production all year long. Fresno State is also 2-1 against the spread, and here, they should take advantage of New Mexico’s awful defense. We’re rolling with the Bulldogs to cover the -17.5 alternate spread and stay hot.
Final Pick
Fresno State -17.5 Alternate Spread (+145)
