Southern Utah vs Utah Tech Prediction
Utah Tech is getting the benefit of the doubt because it’s at home where five of its six wins have come. Southern Utah isn’t scaring anybody and has lost 10 of its 12 road games. However, Southern Utah beat Utah Tech two weeks ago and has played the better ball over the last few weeks. Utah Tech hasn’t won a game in over a month, but I’m supposed to lay points? Not me. Give me Southern Utah and the free points, as the Thunderbirds have simply been the better team this season.
