Fresno State Bulldogs vs Colorado State Rams Prediction, Odds and Picks for Friday, 10/10/25

We have Mountain West action on Friday night as the Fresno State Bulldogs face the Colorado State Rams. The Bulldogs sit atop the conference standings at the moment, with 2 conference wins and a 5-1 overall record. They have done a good job of beating the teams they are supposed to beat, and their only loss came at the hands of Kansas in the season opener. The Rams, on the other hand, are struggling in the first half of the season, playing to a 1-4 mark thus far. Their most recent outing was a 45-24 loss at San Diego State. While I do expect that Fresno will win this game, I think the best play in this game is the game total under 47.5.

Fresno State is a defensive-oriented team under new head coach Matt Entz. He has been a defensive specialist in his career, and while he does not yet have a lot of top end talent at Fresno, his defensive scheming has elevated this team in the early part of the season. The defense should control this game, especially against a Colorado State team that is offensively limited. The Rams struggle to generate much on offense, especially through the air, and I think points will be at a premium for them. Fresno State is comfortable playing tight, low-scoring games, and I expect that sort of thing here. A score in the low 20s is what I am anticipating.

Fresno State vs Colorado State Prediction: Under 47.5 (-110) available at the time of publishing. Playable at that number.
