Utah at Washington picks and predictions
Prediction
Washington 32, Utah 10
Moneyline
PASS.
Washington should come away with the win here, but a -350 favorite is never worth the risk of betting on. Bet on the spread and/or O/U instead.
Against the spread
LEAN WASHINGTON -9.5 (-110).
Washington's offense should prove to be too much for Utah to handle, and the Utes simply don't have an offense that will be able to keep up. Washington has been held within 10 points in each of its last 5 games, but that streak should break here as Utah won't be able to score enough to keep it close, unlike some of Washington's other opponents. Utah's offense has only scored more than 14 vs. a ranked opponent 1 time on the year, and that was vs. a historically bad USC defense.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 50 (-110).
Washington has a very high-powered offense, but I don't expect this Utah offense that was held to only 6 points vs. Oregon to score enough to help this game hit the Over number of 51.5. The Huskies should be able to score at least 30 vs. this Utes defense that struggles vs. the pass, allowing 201.1 passing yards per game. However, Utah has been held to single digits twice on the year and has scored 24 or less in 5 of its total games.
