The San Diego State Aztecs<\/a> (5-1, 2-0 Mountain West) and Fresno State Bulldogs<\/a> (5-2, 2-1) meet Saturday at Valley Children’s Stadium in Fresno, California. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET (FS1). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s<\/a> NCAA football odds around the San Diego State vs. Fresno State odds and make our expert college football picks and predictions<\/a> for the best bets.<\/p>\n

San Diego State leads the all-time series 31-27-4. That includes a victory in the most recent meeting, a 33-18 win at Snapdragon Stadium Nov. 25, 2023, cashing as a 4-point underdog with the Over (47) hitting. San Diego State is 4-1 against the spread (ATS) in the past 5 meetings, and the Over has cashed in each of the past 3 in the series.<\/p>\n

The Aztecs punished Nevada 44-10 in Reno in the most recent game 2 weeks ago, covering as 6.5-point favorite as the Over (42.5) cashed. QB Jayden Denegal passed for 205 yards and 2 TDs, while RB Lucky Sutton ran for 81 yards and a score. WR Jordan Napier led the way with 110 yards on 5 receptions.<\/p>\n

Since a 36-13 loss at Washington State on Sept. 6, San Diego State has rattled off 4 consecutive victories and covers. The Over has hit in the past 2 games, as the San Diego State offense has averaged 44.5 points per game (PPG), while allowing 17.0 PPG. The defense has allowed just 11.8 PPG in the past 4 outings.<\/p>\n

The Bulldogs were on the short end of a 49-21 loss at Colorado State in the most recent game Oct. 10 despite being a 5.5-point favorite as the Over (48) cashed. Fresno State was minus-4 in turnover ratio, as QB E.J. Warner had 3 INTs, although he did have 350 passing yards and 3 TDs, too.<\/p>\n

Moneyline (ML): San Diego State -160 (bet $160 to win $100) | Fresno State +135 (bet $100 to win $135)Against the spread: San Diego State -3 (-115) | Fresno State +3 (-105)Over\/Under (O\/U): 46.5 (O: -115 | U: -105)San Diego State at Fresno State picks and predictionsPrediction<\/p>\n

San Diego State 27, Fresno State 20<\/p>\n

SAN DIEGO STATE (-160) is worth playing as a moderate favorite on the moneyline if you’re a bit on the conservative side, and you’d prefer not to mess around laying the points in a potentially close conference game.<\/p>\n

SAN DIEGO STATE -3 (-115) is worth a look in this road game inside the Mountain West Conference.<\/p>\n

The Aztecs are brimming with confidence, scoring at least 44 points in each of the past 2 outings, which is a bit surprising since they also won a 6-3 game at Northern Illinois on Sept. 27. San Diego State showed it can win with defense, or with plenty of offense. It has cashed 4 in a row, and it has covered 3 straight in this series, too.<\/p>\n

Fresno State had been humming along with 5 straight victories from Aug. 30-Oct. 4, but it was humbled 49-21 at Colorado State, and the Bulldogs were extremely sloppy. If it commits miscues like it did in Fort Collins, Fresno State will get boat-raced again.<\/p>\n

UNDER 46.5 (-105) is the lean, but go with a half-unit at most.<\/p>\n

While San Diego State’s offense has been popping in the past 2 games, the Over-Under is still 3-3 this season, with the Aztecs scoring 13 or fewer points in 2 of 3 road games.<\/p>\n

Fresno State has cashed low in 2 of the past 3 outings, too, and the defense had allowed 21 or fewer points in 4 of the previous 5 games before getting pounded at Colorado State last time out on Oct. 10.<\/p>\n
