Premium Pick

Two teams on winning streaks battle in this matchup, but the edge goes to Utah Valley, which has quality wins against BYU and Oregon and both were on the road. The Wolverines come off an 80-64 victory over Sam Houston State on Thursday while shooting 51 percent and Tahj Small led five double-figure scorers with 19 points and the Bearkats were held to just 33 percent shooting. Utah Valley has covered its past five lined games and the last two were by an average of 15.5 points, including the Oregon win. Utah Tech has won six in a row, but three were against Division II or NAIA schools. The Trailblazers did defeat UT Rio Grande Valley two nights ago with Isaiah Pope scoring 20 points. The Wolverines will look to avenge an overtime loss to Utah Tech in February and they have covered seven of eight home games. Take Utah Valley as a Max Play.
