We're set for what could be an exciting Pac-12 showdown on the Smurf Turf on Saturday night.
The Boise State Broncos (6-1, 3-0 Pac-12) remain unbeaten in league play and, as things currently stand, are the Group of Six playoff favorite as they ride a six-game winning streak. The Texas State Bobcats (4-3, 2-1 Pac-12) are looking to spoil that party on the road in Week 9.
The Bobcats have won back-to-back games, edging out a narrow victory over Utah State their last time out.
If you are looking for some betting advice for the matchup, we've got you covered. Here are the latest odds for the game, courtesy of FanDuel.

Boise State vs. Texas State prediction, pick:
Between a stud quarterback in Brad Jackson and a run game led by Torrance Burgess Jr., the Bobcats
may have the offense to keep pace against a Boise defense that has been a bit of a vulnerability so far this season. Unfortunately for Texas State, I'm not sure the defense can hold up its end of the bargain.
Maddux Madsen, still yet to throw a pick this year, is having a career year, while Dylan Riley and Sire Gaines helm a dominant rushing attack. Texas State struggles defensively, particularly against the pass, and that's why I'm just not taking the upset bid very seriously on the road.
Prediction: Boise State 35, Texas State 20
Best Bet: Boise State -10.5
