In Week 1, we predicted Boise State would have trouble at Troy and they promptly destroyed the Trojans 56-20. Last week they routed Connecticut 62-7 while setting a school record for most yards in a game at an astounding 818 total yards. While the competition has not been great, Boise State is clicking right now.
Boise State may be scoring 59 points per game, but Oklahoma State is only slightly behind them, scoring 56.5 points per game in wins over Montana State and South Alabama. While neither team has played juggernauts, we should expect a ton of points in this game.
