Stanford at Utah picks and predictions

Prediction

Utah 75, Stanford 72

Moneyline

PASS.

The spread on this game is way too wide for 2 teams struggling. It would not be the craziest idea to put 1/2 a unit on Stanford (+285) as it did win the 1st matchup. It won't be my official play, but it's not a bad idea. I'll save my official recommendation for the spread.

Against the spread

BET STANFORD +8.5 (-114).

I cannot recommend this bet enough. There is no way that the Cardinal should be getting 8 1/2 points in this matchup. Stanford has covered in 3 of their last 5 Pac-12 road games. They also beat the Utes by 7 in their first matchup at home.

Utah has failed to cover the spread in 7 of their last 10 and 3 of their last 4 at home. The Utes likely win the game but I don't see them winning this game by 8 points or more.

Over/Under

AVOID.

There is no edge to be seen in this matchup. In their last 10 meetings, they've gone Over in 5 and Under in 5. If you combine Stanford and Utah's last 10 games, the 2 teams went Over in 10 and Under in 10. You can't get more down the middle than that. Just stay away from this one.
