Colorado is off to a 7-2 start on the season, and no win was as big as their last one as they took down Xavier in a hard-fought 68-66 thriller at home. The Buffs could be a bit flat as thy head to play BYU, at one of the most difficult venues in the country. Colorado is not shooting the ball well this season, at 45% or less in seven of their nine games, and have not topped the 42% mark in each of their last three, and this is just their second true road game of the season. BYU enters at 6-3, and one thing this team has done a great job of is sweeping the glass, as the Cougars are +8 in rebounding margin on the season. The Cougars are 188-28 SU in their last 216 home games, and they own a 38-18 ATS mark in their last 56 home games as a favorite of -3.5 to -9.5. Back BYU.

BYU at Colorado
BYU defeated Utah State on Wednesday 80-68 as Chase Fischer scored 24 points and Nick Emery added 17 points. Kyle Collinsworth had an off night shooting 3-of-11 for eight points but dishing out 11 assists. The Cougars shot just 42.9 percent form the field, but held the Aggies to 35.4 percent. It was the second game in a row the Cougars have gone UNDER the total. Colorado has won seven in a row after an 88-77 win at Colorado State on Sunday when it held the Rams to just 25 points in the second half. Josh Scott led the Buffaloes with 21 points and Wesley Gordon chipped in with 15 points and 12 rebounds. BYU is holding opponents to a .391 field goal percentage compared to .416 for Colorado. The UNDER is 7-3 in BYU's last 10 games after an ATS win dating to last season. The posted total is underestimating the strong defense of these teams. Play the UNDER.
