The Broncos are 4-0 against the spread in their last four neutral site games and 7-1 ATS in their last eight games in September.

2011 College Football Week 1 Free Pick: Boise State Broncos -3
No. 3 Oregon vs. No. 4 LSU, 8:00PM ET
Odds: Oregon -3.5
All things considered the Tigers would be a nice play at 3.5 but these are uncertain times. How much will LSU be distracted by the Jefferson issue? Obviously the Tiger defense is more than capable of containing the Ducks’ offense, but it also may be on the field a lot. What happens when the Tigers get into the fourth quarter and they’ve chased LaMichael James and Derron Thomas around the field for over two hours? I wouldn’t call Oregon a value pick, but the Ducks certainly offer the more stable situation. Also, according to latest college football trends, the Ducks are 5-1 against the spread in their last six games in September while the Tigers are just 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games in this month.
