Boise State vs. UNLV: Last Minute Spread Info, Line, BCS Impact and Predictions

As the Boise State Broncos march on towards their undefeated BCS championship hopes and dreams, they face the prospect of traveling to Sin City to face the UNLV Rebels.

At 2-5, the Rebels aren't much of a threat, but any time you have to go win a game on the road, it presents unique challenges, and I think the Broncos will experience that.

That being said, Boise is matching up their 43.3 points per game with a defense that allows just over 40, so it shouldn't be that much of a challenge.

Anything can happen, though, and that's exactly why they play the games. It should be an entertaining football matchup.

Where: Sam Boyd Stadium, Las Vegas, NV

When: Saturday, Nov. 5. 10:30 p.m EST

Spread: Boise State -42

This is a huge spread that I would be weary of.

Over/Under: 60

Look at the spread, and you'd have to assume that UNLV will score some.

BCS/Top 25 Poll Implications

With their undefeated record and No. 5 ranking, the Broncos hope to keep themselves in championship contention. The Rebels could actually find themselves ranked with a huge upset.

Keys to Boise State Win

If Kellen Moore is the Heisman candidate that many people think he is, he should have no problem going up big on the Rebels and letting the second team take it the rest of the way.

Keys to UNLV Win

The only way to beat the Broncos is to beat them at their own game. In order to win, this has to be a shoot-out, so quarterback Caleb Herring is going to have to search within himself to find the inner gun-slinger.

Prediction

Boise State's easy schedule comes through again in a clutch situation

Boise State: 55 UNLV: 23
