Arizona Wildcats vs. Utah Utes: Match Details
Fixture: Arizona Wildcats vs. Utah Utes
Date & Time: Saturday, November 5, 7:30 pm EDT
Venue: Rice-Eccles Stadium, Salt Lake City, Utah
The Arizona Wildcats have been struggling defensively as they are allowing 37.4 points on 475 total yards per game this season. They have not shown the ability to stop the run as teams are averaging 207.8 rushing yards per game against them.
Their offense is doing pretty well as they are scoring 32.5 points per game behind the play of sophomore quarterback Jayden de Laura. He has thrown for seven touchdowns to one interception over his last two games.
The Utah Utes have a more balanced offensive philosophy as they are averaging 38.3 points on 456.6 total yards per game. Junior quarterback Cameron Rising missed the last game and his status is still up in the air at the time of writing.
However, they are a great team at running the football as they get 189.5 rushing yards per game. Their defense has held their own as they are giving up 21.6 points per game and keeping the offense without many issues to worry about.

Arizona Wildcats vs. Utah Utes: Betting Odds
Arizona Wildcats vs. Utah Utes: Pick
We understand why people are bullish on Arizona's offense as they are averaging 38 points in their last two games, but we do not like this bet.
If Cameron Rising is out of this game for Utah, the Utes will dominate the time of possession and eat the clock as they try to win the game. Utah is also allowing 21.6 points per game this season and has 15 takeaways as a team (10 interceptions, five fumble recoveries).
Pick: Arizona Team Total Under 24.5 (-125)
Arizona Wildcats vs. Utah Utes: Prediction
We seriously trust the Utah defense to be able to limit what de Laura can do with the football passing and make his day a lot tougher than it has been.
There is a reason why Utah is ranked where they are and it is because they can win with a bunch of different aspects working in their favor. The Wildcats are just 1-4 against the spread in their last five games against the Utes. So, this just feels correct.
Prediction: Utah Utes -17.5 (-110)
