Utah at Stanford

The Utah Utes are one of the most improved teams in the country. They looked to be on their way to giving Oregon everything they could handle. Already leading 7-0, they threw an apparent 80 yard TD pass, but the player tossed the ball down before crossing the goal line. The ball was picked up by Oregon, and carried over 100 yards for a TD. A 14-0 lead and momentum turned into a 7-7 tie, and all the momentum was gone. They will go from taking on one of the best offenses to taking on one of the best defenses. The problem for Stanford is offense. They are 5-4 with one of the nation's best defenses, but it is because their offense has scored 20 points or less in five games, and they will struggle to get there in this one. Utah has not allowed more than 28 points to anyone until Oregon last week, but the Ducks also exposed Stanford. I don't see either team pulling away in this one, and it should be a one score game. Utah is 5-0 ATS in their last five vs. a team with a winning home record, and 7-1 ATS in their last eight anywhere vs. a winning team. Grab the points and play on Utah.
