Utah vs Utah State Stats
Utah Running Utes
The Utes continued their undefeated streak by defeating Baylor Bears 23-12 at home, with senior quarterback Cameron Rising leading the team with two touchdowns before leaving the game due to a hand injury. Freshman Isaac Wilson stepped in as QB. RB Michael Bernard had a standout game with 118 rushing yards, while the defense limited the Bears to 108 rushing yards and 115 passing yards. Safety Tao Johnson scored on a blocked field goal return, showcasing the Utes' strong defense this season. Coach Kyle Whittingham emphasized the need for continued productivity despite Rising's injury. Rising and LB Karene Reid are questionable for the next game. With a power ranking of 63, Utah is performing well in offense and defense, with a 2-0 record this season.
Utah State Aggies Analysis
Utah State suffered a significant loss to USC, with their quarterback and offense struggling to perform. The Aggies defense also struggled to contain USC's explosive offense. Key injuries to RB Robert Briggs and starting quarterback Spencer Petras may have impacted the team's performance. The team's power ranking is 104, with a ranking of 115 for offense and 111 for defense. Utah State's overall record is 1-1, with a loss in both games against the spread. Despite the recent loss, the team had won two consecutive road games prior to this defeat. Interim head coach Nate Dreiling praised USC's strong and well-rounded team. The Aggies will need to regroup and potentially adjust their strategy moving forward.
Utah State Favored to Dominate Utah Utes in Saturday's Matchup
The Utah Utes have struggled in their recent away games, failing to cover the spread in their last two matchups and only scoring seven points against Northwestern in the 2023 Las Vegas Bowl. With a track record of not surpassing 20 points in four of their last six road games dating back to last season, their offensive capabilities are called into question. Conversely, Utah State has shown strength in their home games, winning three out of their last four games against the spread in the previous season. Their offense has been particularly potent, scoring 32 points or more in five out of their last six home games. Utah State's offensive prowess is highlighted by their seventh-place ranking in total yards per game nationally last season. In their last meeting, Utah State emerged victorious both straight up and against the spread. Given the questionable status of Utah's starting quarterback with a hand injury, the statistics and trends heavily favor a Utah State victory against the spread at home this Saturday. It is recommended to take Utah State to cover the spread by more than 20 points.
