Utah Tech vs Utah Valley Prediction
It’s still tough to back Utah Tech with confidence given this club won its first game in two months. Utah Tech is also just 15-15 ATS on the season despite being a big underdog nightly. Utah Valley has been racking up the wins these last couple of months and is a profitable 16-11-1 ATS on the season. Utah Valley beat Utah Tech twice this season and has won five of the last six meetings overall. Utah Valley covered four of these five wins. Thick line for a tournament game, but it’s hard to take Utah Tech seriously given what we’ve seen over these last two months. Give me Utah Valley in a comfortable win.
