Vegas Play of the Day: Boise State at UNLV

UNLV Faces San Jose State Football Game

L.E. Baskow

UNLV head coach Tony Sanchez eyes his players as they warm up versus San Jose State at Sam Boyd Stadium on Saturday, October 10, 2015.

We've reset the Play of the Day with fresh bankrolls and turned it into a yearly competition. Our three sports writers have restarted with $10,000 bankrolls to continue using on odds from the South Point.

UNLV plus-20.5 vs. Boise State: $550 to win $500

What would this line be if UNLV had won its last two games instead of lost them? Probably a few points smaller, yet the only major difference that potential 4-3 team and this real 2-5 one is that this one is better at quarterback with senior Blake Decker returning to the lineup.

Blowing a lead won’t be a problem because the Rebels likely won’t have one, so I’m counting on the defense bouncing back from its poor tackling at Fresno State and a couple of bye week wrinkles helping UNLV keep it within three touchdowns.

Current Standings (as of July 1): Brewer (20-15, $11,320), Bern (13-15, $9,600), Keefer (12-26-2, $4,231)

Lifetime standings: 2014-15 Champion Bern (94-88-1), Brewer (89-102-2), Keefer (96-110-4)
