Utah State vs Utah Pick

Utah is a far better team in this matchup, and it will defend its ranking on Saturday. Look for the Utes to jump out early and control this game against a below-average Utah State team. Utah is better on both sides of the ball and will thrive in front of their home fans, leading to a blowout win and cover against an in-state opponent.
