Given OSU's offensive struggles and Utah's stout defense, the under seems like the easy play. That's not enough to tempt us, though. At 130 points, this spread is just too low. Besides, the over is 4-0 in the Utes' last four vs. a team with a losing straight-up record and 5-1 in their last six road games vs. a team with a winning home record. It's also 5-1 in the Beavers' last six games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game.
The Utes have found their offensive flow recently, especially after Branden Carlson returned to the lineup. He's been the one leading the charge, scoring 20-plus in three consecutive. He'll have another monster game in the paint against the Beavers. It's now or never for Utah, 91st in offensive efficiency, to prove it is a complete team capable of making a run in the Pac-12. I expect to see some points in this game.
