What a matchup! What a game we have in store for us!
UCLA is staying put for the holiday bowl season, facing Boise State in the LA Bowl. Despite the shorter distance to the game compared to their home games at the Rose Bowl, there’s no guarantee that the Bruins will attract more fans than the Broncos.
It’s VERY possible with how much the Bronco faithful love their team that they could bring a legion of fans to LA for this bowl game.
OH, and here’s the kicker!
Rob Gronkowski will serve as the official host of the game. He’ll be tailgating I’m sure. He’ll be at the fan fest, the pep rally, and on the field for kick-off. He’ll be at the trophy presentation, and he’ll preside over the coin toss! What could go wrong? LOL
UCLA and Boise State have only crossed paths once in their program history, and that encounter took place in 1999.
During that game, the Bruins secured a convincing 38-7 victory.
Former running back and current running backs coach DeShaun Foster (he used to be a staple on my fantasy football teams back in the day) played a significant role, contributing 96 all-purpose yards and scoring a touchdown for UCLA.
UCLA and Boise State did not play last season, so there’s no recent history to look at here.

Laiatu Latu is the winner of the Hendricks Award as college football’s defensive end of the year! He’s also the Lombardi Award Winner as college football’s lineman of the year! Guess what Boise State. You have to try to stop him!
On the moneyline, the way to go is to grab UCLA. Not only should they pick up a win over Boise State, but I also project them covering the spread.
UCLA’s passing offense is poised for another strong outing, given their recent success against California.
I found some stats for this week’s College football bowl game from the interwebs. Boise State hasn’t done too well lately, winning only 1 out of their last 5 games against teams from the Pac-12 conference.
They’ve also struggled in December, with just 1 win in their last 6 games and when playing as the underdog.
On the other hand, UCLA has been more successful, winning 7 out of their last 10 games against teams from the Mountain West conference.
With a -2.5 spread in their favor on the road, I’m backing UCLA to cover.
I’m taking the over with the over/under line set at 49.5.
So far this season, games involving Boise State have generated an average combined score of 57.8 points, and I believe this game will exceed 49.5.
And if you’re into Over/Under trends, here’s one for you: In eight out of Boise State’s last eleven games, the total points scored went OVER the expected amount.
