BYU has gone from a bubble team to a strong team with a late-season surge that has taken them to seven straight wins. They are now #23 on KenPom. They will host Utah tonight, which comes into the game at just 16-14. The differences in records kind of raise the line here, but Utah has been highly competitive late in the season. The Utes are just 3-3 in their last six games, but of the three losses, two have come by two and four points. This is just a tune-up for BYU, as they are poised to make a run in the Big-12 Tournament. I think Utah has shown the ability to stay in games. I like Utah in this one.

Pro Picks
BYU at Utah
Undefeated BYU runs right at opponents averaging 91.9 points with seven players scoring 9.3 or more points. BYU is 32-15 OVER the total on the road after a game allowing 55 or fewer points, plus 82-58 OVER on the road after playing three straight as chalk. Utah knows something about running-and-gunning, as well, averaging 81.6 points while shooting 48.1 from the field and 37.9% from long range. Five players are scoring in double figures. With BYU 17-7 OVER the total on the road against winning teams, expect an offensive show. Take BYU/Utah OVER the total.
