The Washington State Cougars will hit the road to start their 2023 campaign against the Colorado State Rams. Kickoff is scheduled at 7:00 p.m. ET on September 2nd at Canvas Stadium.
These teams both struggled last season when it came to rushing yards. Washington State were ranked 118th in the nation, having averaged an unimpressive 106.8 per game. Colorado State, meanwhile, were ranked 127th with 89 per game.
Looking forward to Saturday, Washington State is the favorite in this one, and the experts expect to see them win by 9.5 points. They finished last season with an 8-5 record against the spread.
Washington State ought to be happy about their advantage in the spread: the team was a solid 6-0 when favored last season. Betting on them to win was the most profitable play last year, as bettors who put $100 on that outcome in every game walked away with $950.41. Sadly, Colorado State will open their season as the underdog, and the team was 1-8 as such last year.
