Utah also played Friday, lifting the lid on league play with an 80-58 triumph against Washington State (covering a -7.5). The Utes, which beat UW 86-61 last season, have won 7 straight after losing back-to-back neutral-site games Nov. 17 and Nov. 19.

Washington at Utah picks and predictions
Prediction
Utah 83, Washington 76
Moneyline
No value in the wide gulf between these tags. AVOID.
Against the spread
UW is 5-3 ATS across the last 8 series meetings and has played a slightly tougher schedule so far this season.
The Huskies are excellent in defending the 3-ball. The Utes have made a lot of hay from distance. Figure on some regression there and on a final result too close to this spread to offer any room for betting leverage.
PASS.

Over/Under
The Over has hit in 3 consecutive meetings and in 6 of the last 7.
Both teams play at top-quartile tempos. Both are adept at generating dunks and close-proximity looks. Both have also played slates leaning a bit more toward quality on the defensive end of the floor, so their offensive numbers figure to be slightly depressed.
Expect the all-around shot-making ability to outpace the ability to get stops.
BACK THE OVER 155.5 (-110). Overnight line movement has taken some air out of this play: consider a partial-unit wager on this one.
