Utah Tech vs Abilene Christian Prediction
Utah Tech hasn’t won a game in over a month and has yet to win a road game this season. Abilene Christian went into Utah Tech a couple of weeks ago and left with a 14-point victory while shooting 52 percent from the field and 47 percent from three. While a .500 team overall, Abilene Christian has strung together four straight wins and covers, which includes upsets over Seattle and Utah Tech. This is the best ball Abilene Christian has played all season, and it’s hard seeing a team that has yet to win on the road be the one to end the momentum. I’ll lay the points with Abilene Christian on Saturday night.
