This is a well-balanced Utah team that has scored 30 points or more in nine games this year. The same can be said for Alabama that has scored 29 or more in eight games on the season. The Tide defense has been tough all season, but a closer look shows few good offenses on the schedule. Utah has the 32nd best offense in the country. ‘Bama has played just three teams in the top 40 on offense all season. Those three teams all got to 20 points and averaged 23.7 points per game against the Tide, so Utah is going to score here. Utah stepped into BCS conference games just twice on the season and allowed 28 to Oregon State and 23 to a not-so offensive Michigan team, so I see the Tide getting their points in this one as well. This total is set too low, so I'm backing the OVER here.
