Utah at Colorado

Utah lost in the final seconds 30-28 to Oregon last week but Joe Williams ran for 149 yards on 23 carries and Troy Williams was 20-for-30 for 235 yards and a touchdown. The Utes are 4-1 on the road this season and 8-3 overall with close losses against California and Washington. Utah is #49 in yards allowed with 387.0 per game and #37 in scoring defense, allowing 23.6 per contest. The Utes suffered some early injuries, especially at running back, but Williams came out of retirement to help out and has been a force ever since. Colorado has been a huge surprise in the Pac-12 as few people thought the Buffaloes would be contenders. They beat Washington State 38-24 on Saturday as Sefo Liufau was 27-of-41 for 345 yards and Phillip Lindsay ran for 144 yards. However, the Buffaloes will face a much tougher defense this week and they're laying double digits. Utah has covered four of its last five after an ATS loss. Take the points and play Utah.
