San Diego State vs New Mexico Prediction & Pick

San Diego State is playing better down the stretch and have now both scored and allowed 219 points this season. The Aztecs offensive has rolled up more than 400 yards offense in two recent games against a pair of West division leaders in Fresno State and San Jose State while scoring 28 and 43 points.

New Mexico averages 14.7 points and 240 yards per game - both worst in the conference. The Lobos have scored 14 TD's in 10 games this season - worst in the country. Six of those TD's came opening week against FCS Maine. The Lobos look like a true towel tosser and their league-worst passing offense (108/game) does not appear to be able to take advantage of the Aztec's league-worst pass defense (253/game, 19 TD's).

Final Score Prediction: San Diego State: 27 | New Mexico: 19

Bad teams can sometimes offer value when betting, but New Mexico has the nation's worst offense and has failed to score a TD in four games this season. The Logos have now lost 7-straight games and are 0-5 ATS in their last five contests. They will struggle to run the ball again vs the Aztecs, and should throw much more in this match-up.

San Diego State is not a reliable option to lay big points, and especially on the road. Add in a poor pass defense, and this low total is perhaps the best option to attack as the Lobos throw everything at the Aztecs in their last home game.

Bet: Over 39.5 (-110)
