Utah vs Arizona Prediction
Utah has had moments this season where it can put together an impressive performance. Unfortunately, it hasn’t been consistent and it hasn’t come on the road where the Utes are 1-7 SU. Even with recent losses Arizona is 11-3 SU at home and still a profitable 15-12 ATS on the season. I’d expect a motivated Arizona team after not showing up defensively against BYU. I kind of like Arizona to get its act together and pull away with a statement win at home in Big 12 play. Â
