Utah vs Baylor Prediction


In this Utah vs Baylor Prediction, Baylor is coming as -11.5 home favorites. Baylor has been the better team this season but both teams have almost identical ATS records and both have been struggling lately. Baylor is 2-6 in its last 8 games while Utah is 1-9 in its last 10 but 8-2 ATS on the road. I cannot pick a side between two unstable team, but they both are 15-5 to the under in their last 20 games combined and both of their previous head-to-head meetings also went under the total. I expect another low-scoring game today, so take the under 151.5 points in this one.

Nikos Lagouretos's Pick: Under 151.5
