I am having a bit of trouble understanding this one? Why is Pacific getting points (+2.5) against a team that they have beaten twice this year (by 7 at home, and by 1 on road) and are currently on a 22 game winning streak.
I'm assuming some theory is that Pacific is already gauranteed a spot and perhaps Utah State has more to play for? Maybe there is thought that Pacific will be willing to throw this one, so the Big West can get two teams in? I'm not sure I buy that argument however. It's hard to believe the effort from Pacific will be lacking with a conference championship on the line, hanging a banner in your gym always seems to get teams fired up.
Pacific +2.5 and ML +130 for that matter, looks pretty good to me.
Any help would be appreciated.
