The Eastern Washington Eagles take on the Boise State Broncos in Boise, Idaho, on Friday, Sept. 5. Kickoff is set for 9 p.m. ET on FS1.

Boise State is favored by 29.5 points on the spread with a moneyline of -8000. Eastern Washington, meanwhile, comes in at +2200 to pull off the upset. The total is set at 55.5 points.

Boise traveled to Tampa in Week 1 and got absolutely annihilated by USF, 34-7. The Broncos will be looking to bounce back against an Eastern Washington team that suffered a 31-21 loss to Incarnate Word to open its season.

Who holds the advantage here?

Here's my Eastern Washington vs. Boise State prediction and college football picks for Friday, September 5.

Eastern Washington vs Boise State Pick, Best Bets

The first thing I want to do this week is lay the points with Boise State against Eastern Washington.

The Eagles look like a shadow of their old selves right now. After going 10-3 in 2021, Eastern Washington has finished with records of 3-8, 4-7 and 4-8.

The Eagles are also coming off a 31-21 loss at Incarnate Word, which lost to Nicholls, 20-6, in Week 0 as 13.5-point favorites. The Cardinals absolutely torched Eastern Washington through the air en route to 463 total yards on the day. Expect more of the same trouble here.

Eastern Washington’s defense has been brutal, and its offense isn’t anywhere close to the high-powered teams we’ve seen in past years.

After getting a wake-up call in an ugly game against USF in Week 1, I expect Boise State to bounce back in a big way on the blue turf at Albertsons Stadium.

Eastern Washington vs Boise State Friday NCAAF Pick to Bet

The Broncos should have things figured out by now, and Maddux Madsen and Sire Gaines still form a formidable duo in the backfield.

Plus, it's not like they're playing one of the top Group of Five quarterbacks in the country this week like they did when they faced Byrum Brown in Orlando.

We should get about 10 points of line value here, so I'll take Boise State at anything around -31.

Pick: Boise State -29.5 (Play to -31)
