Utah vs. Air Force Pick
No. 7 Utah will try to make it seven-of-eight over Air Force this Saturday at 7:30PM ET. Read on to check out the latest point spread for this contest, as well as for our free pick.
Before we get to our free pick, let’s take a look at the current point spread for this Week 9 college football matchup.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com have made Utah a 7-point favorite over Air Force in Week 9. The over/under total for this game is currently 55 points.
The Utes are a perfect 7-0 on the season and have covered in six of their first seven games with one push. They’re undefeated on the road this season at 3-0 and have covered in all three of those games away from home.
The Falcons are 5-3 but have failed to cover in six of their eight games. They’re a perfect 4-0 at home this year but have failed to cover in three of those four contests.
Our Free Pick:
Utah is a juggernaut and the Utes are catching Air Force at the right time. The Falcons aren’t playing with a lot of confidence right now after losing to San Diego State and TCU in back-to-back weeks. That said, the underdog is 11-0-1 ATS in the last 12 meetings between these two teams and the Utes are just 1-5 ATS in the last six meetings with the Falcons. For whatever reason, Air Force plays Utah tough. They covered as an 8.5-point underdog last year and as a 9.5-point dog two years ago. They also beat the Utes 20-12 as an outright underdog in 2008, so we like the Falcons chances again this year. Our pick is Air Force and the points.
