Arizona State vs Utah Betting Prediction
Utah comes into this matchup on the bubble for the NCAA Tournament and they most likely need a minimum of two wins in the PAC-12 tournament to get in. The Utes did not finish the regular season on a positive note, as they lost to Oregon and Oregon State. Arizona State is on a three game losing streak and they only scored 47 points in their last game against UCLA. The Sun Devils are only shooting 42% from the field, but they did beat Utah twice in the regular season by scores of 82-70 and 85-77. Utah would love to have those two losses back, but I do think they bounce back with a nice win here. Arizona State has allowed 81+ points in three of their last five games and I think they are going to struggle to get stops. Take Utah here.
