BYU vs. Utah prediction: Best bets, odds, picks for the ‘Holy War’
Utah and BYU meet in a rivalry game that could decide which team reaches the Big 12 Championship. It is the first time both sides enter their “Holy War” ranked in the top 10, with unbeaten Utah leading the conference and BYU second.
Utah is favoured by 5.5 points at home. BYU has an 7-1 record, including a major win over Notre Dame, but has since lost to UCF and narrowly beaten Arizona State; running back LJ Martin is questionable. The article argues Utah’s adaptability and home advantage give it an edge over a BYU side relying heavily on quarterback Bear Bachmeier.
In short
- The top-10 rivalry could shape the Big 12 title race.
- Utah is 8-0 and a 5.5-point home favourite.
- BYU’s LJ Martin is questionable for the game.
