❌ Colorado State +17.5: We Bet the Scoring Average, Not the Defense

The God of Odds likes Colorado State +17.5 at -110, and MyBookie.ag is the place to hammer it.

Everyone sees BYU's 2-0 record and assumes this is a mismatch. But look closer. The Cougars haven't played a true road game yet. Their 45.5 points per game came in comfortable settings. Now they walk into Fort Collins to face a Colorado State team that's also 2-0, also scoring at will, and actually knows what hostile territory feels like.

The Rams are putting up 46.5 points per game while allowing just 18.5. That scoring margin is nearly identical to BYU's. And they've done it while going 2-0 at home. This isn't a team hoping to keep it close. This is a team that expects to score on every possession.

The line tells the real story. The spread opened at 18 and moved to 17.5. That half-point might not look like much, but it's a signal. Sharp money respects Colorado State's offense enough to shave the number. When the market moves toward the home dog, you pay attention.

BYU's 1-0 ATS record is meaningless. One game. Against a team that isn't Colorado State. The Rams haven't been tested by a Power Five opponent yet, but they haven't been stopped either. Their 2-0 start is built on balance, not luck.

At +17.5, you're getting a home team that scores 46.5 points per game, allows 18.5, and has already proven it can win in its own building. The public sees BYU's brand and lays the points. The sharps see a Rams team that can hang.

MyBookie.ag offers the best spread price at 17.5 (-110). Bovada has the same number but at -115, which costs you extra juice for no reason. Take the better price. Take the home dog. Take Colorado State +17.5.
