Our Utah Utes vs BYU Cougars Prediction

Despite being the lower-ranked team, Utah is the small favorite in this game. That being said, BYU still looks to be the better betting option. The Cougars have been the more consistent team this season, especially against the Big 12, where they have yet to lose and average 31.6 points per game.

Utah actually averages 33.3 points per game vs the Big 12, but they have shown signs of being inconsistent when they dropped their Big 12 opener 34-10. BYU has the advantage of playing this game at home, so because they have had better quarterback play overall, our Utah Utes vs BYU Cougars prediction is: BYU Cougars +3.5.

Prediction:

 

BYU Cougars +3.5
