Famous Idaho Potato Bowl Pick, Prediction
Action Network college football betting expert Collin Wilson offers this prediction:
The Panthers are trending in the wrong direction, losing their last five games of the season.
The offense was centered around the explosiveness of the run game, which now travels to frigid Boise, Idaho, with star running back Marcus Carroll headed to Missouri.
There are bigger problems for Georgia State on the defensive side of the ball, as the Panthers rank 128th in allowing pass explosives.
Whether McCae Hillstead, Cooper Legas or Levi Williams get the start, each will have a full cabinet of explosive targets in Terrell Vaughn, Jalen Royals and Micah Davis.
Pick: Utah State -1

Famous Idaho Potato Bowl History
The Famous Idaho Potato Bowl bowl began in 1997, and the matchup currently features schools from the Mountain West Conference and Mid-American Conference (MAC). The game takes place at Albertsons Stadium from Boise, Idaho. This game was previously called the Humanitarian Bowl and MPC Computers Bowl.
Favorites won and covered three straight games in this bowl, which included Ohio's 30-21 win over Nevada in the 2019 installment. In 2020, Nevada picked up a win as a 1-point underdog against Tulane, winning 38-27 as the 'over' connected.
In 2021, Kent State of the MAC and Wyoming of the Mountain West Conference squared off on Dec. 21, 2021, with the Cowboys winning a 52-38 shootout against the Golden Flashes as the 'over' easily cashed.
The 'over' has cashed in seven of the past eight bowl games played on the Smurf Turf in Boise, but underdogs have won the last two outright, including Georgia State rolling past Utah State in 2023.
