Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Middle Tennessee vs. Colorado State odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
The Blue Raiders traveled to James Madison last week and played a scoreless 1st quarter. Once the second quarter began, the wheels fell off. JMU outscored MTSU 21-0 in the 2nd and scored 37 unanswered points before the Blue Raiders final responded with a TD last in the 3rd quarter. The Dukes rolled to the 44-7 victory in their FBS debut.
The Rams’ road trip to Michigan went about as well as the Blue Raiders’ road trip did. Colorado State was trampled 51-7 in the Big House as it turned the ball over 2 for a minus-2 turnover margin and was sacked 7 times in the rout.
