Northwestern State vs. Weber State: Defensive Questions at -34.5
Analysis updated September 19, 2026 at 12:34 AM CDT
Noah Kjar's six touchdown catches help make Weber State the likely winner. Covering a 34.5-point spread requires more than a productive passing attack.
What the matchup supports
Weber State has allowed more than 480 yards per game through three games, according to Northwestern State University Athletics, the visiting school's official athletics site. That defensive record raises doubts about laying SPF's 34.5 points: the Wildcats need to win by at least 35 to cover.
The same preview reports that Weber State averages 31.0 points and 400.7 yards per game. Receiver Noah Kjar has 385 receiving yards and six touchdown catches. That production makes the Wildcats the tentative winner pick, though their scoring average alone can't establish an expected margin.
Northwestern State scored touchdowns through the air and on defense in its loss at East Texas A&M. Those plays show some scoring potential, but one game's highlights don't establish that the 0-3 Demons can reliably exploit Weber State's defense. Northwestern State +34.5 isn't a supported wager on that evidence alone.
Betting decision
Pass. SPF's total is 54.5, but the available evidence lacks Northwestern State's scoring averages and Weber State's points allowed, leaving too little basis for an over or under. The moneyline price is unavailable, so pass on that market as well.
