Arizona State vs Utah Prediction
The current betting odds have Arizona State listed as a 5.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Arizona State has looked really good in their games this season with their 4-1 record overall and their 2-0 conference record which has them right near the top of the Big 12. Their only loss this season was against Mississippi State who isn't the best SEC opponent, but they aren't a bad team either and Arizona State has once again earned a ranking in the top 25. They are off a 27-24 win over TCU in their last one and they are still undefeated in the Big 12 so they are going to be motivated to make a statement in this game. Meanwhile, Utah has looked really good in their games this season with their 4-1 record overall, but their 1-1 conference record has them lower in the Big 12. They are off a 48-14 win on the road over West Virginia in their last one and they have been rolling over some bad teams this year, but their only loss did come at home and they looked terrible in that one. They lost to a really good Texas Tech team who might be the best in the Big 12, but Utah had no offense in that game and couldn't get anything going. Utah does have a really good defense and they even played well in their 1 loss, but Arizona State also has a good defense that isn't going to give up points easily. Arizona State is still fighting to show that they are the team to beat in this conference as the defending champions from last year and they have the talent to make this a close game with Utah. The best way to place a bet here is on Arizona State to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes
“Every close of the game, it's incredible our guys find ways to get it done in the big moments. It’s a testament to the character of the guys were have on our team.” - Kenny Dillingham after his team’s win against TCU in their last game.
“The offensive line did a really good job in their run blocking and their pass protection. Also, (Dampier) buys himself a lot of time with his escapability and his ability to extend the play. He does a good job when he is on the move of keeping his eyes downfield. He doesn't necessarily just tuck-and-run right away.” - Kyle Whittingham after his team’s win against WVU in their last game.
