The set-up: This is an important game for both teams. The winner plays in the Big West title game. Utah State has won ten in a row and it plays with revenge after falling in this contest last year. The Aggies have a difficult task ahead of them and they were almost caught "looking ahead" to this one with a "close call" against Colorado State last weekend. Utah State has its eyes on a big bowl game, but it'll have to take it one game at a time: "Survive and advance. Just like in the NCAA Tournament," Utah State head coach Matt Wells said after the game, according to the Associated Press, via ESPN.com. "You know, I'm going to celebrate after a win like this. I'm going to let the players celebrate all the way until Monday. We have a special season going."

Boise State looked decent offensively against a weak New Mexico defense last week, but the Broncos looked great defensively, holding the Lobos to only 14 points.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Utah State has seen the total go "under" the number in four of its last six vs. teams with winning records, while Boise State has seen the total go "under" in four of five already this year after two or more consecutive SU victories. This number is high, play the "under."
