San Jose State Spartans at San Diego State Aztecs Prediction
Rivalry games are often a venue where the unthinkable happens. When you throw in a bunch of points, the underdog in the series almost always bodes some tremendous value and upside. Bottom line there are some laying serious juice at -2100 with San Diego State on the Money Line as opposed to taking San Jose State outright at +1100. This practice is extremely dangerous as there is no such thing as easy money, especially in rivalry games as potent as this one. As we highlighted previously, the pooch has been the one that yielded the most dividends against the spread in this series as of late. To many the rationale is simple, San Diego State is a defending conference champion and they have won as much as any team in America as of late. To the naked eye, they should blow out San Jose State but then again San Diego State was spotting nearly 20 points to USA on the road and they were beaten outright. The Aztecs are not bulletproof by any stretch and if there was any situation that could ensnare them it would be against this familiar foe.
Free Pick:
San Jose State +23.5
