Montana State To Take Control
The Bobcats have had a historic season and college football prop betting sites are correct in leaning their way, however, oddsmakers might’ve shorted them too many points on the spread. They averaged 41.3 ppg this season while their defense allowed just 17.1 ppg.
They are currently a perfect 15-0 on the season and have won their last four games by at least a two touchdown margin including the FCS Championship semifinal against South Dakota where they won 31-17.
While explosive, the North Dakota State offense will inevitably struggle here against arguably the top defense across the board in FCS play. The Bobcats are top-5 in plays allowed per game to opponents, top-20 in yards allowed per play and touchdowns per game, and top-15 in yards allowed per game.
