BOISE STATE (-6.5)  21   San Diego State  15

Boise State will likely get an upgrade at quarterback with 4-year starter Hank Bachmeier deciding to transfer this week. That decision was likely predicated by the new offensive coordinator dropping him to a backup role because of how horribly he was playing (4.6 yards per pass play). New quarterback Taylen Green got plenty of action against a good defense in week 1, completing 19 of 28 passes and averaging a respectable 5.0 yppp against a very good Oregon State pass defense. Green also ran for 111 yards on 10 runs, most of which came on a 74-yard scramble, so he adds a dimension that Bachmeier lacked. Boise State should be better offensively, as I expect Green to improve the pass attack by around 2 yards per pass play.

San Diego State’s offense has been even worse than the Boise offense so far, as the Aztecs have been 1.7 yards per play worse than average with an pass attack (if you can call it that) averaging a woeful 63 yards per game at 2.7 yppp. San Diego State can run the ball but Boise is better than average defending the run.

I’ll call this one right around the number but I wouldn’t be surprised if Boise’s offense is more improved than I project.
