No. 21 Arizona is on an 8-1 spread run with a balanced offense behind QB Noah Fifita (14 TDs, 4 INTs) and RB Jonah Coleman (565 yards, 6.1 yards per carry). They've won three in a row, all as underdogs, over Washington State (44-6), Oregon State (27-24), and UCLA (27-10). Colorado is 1-5 in the Pac-12 and wearing down losing three straight. That included a 46-43 loss to Stanford as a double-digit favorite. The defense is 115th in points given up (33.9 per game), 117th on third down (45.80%), and 131st in total yards allowed (469 per contest). Colorado is 19-41 ATS after back-to-back games with a turnover margin of +1 or better and Arizona whipped them a year ago, 43-20, with an edge in yards of 673-340. Play Arizona.

Pro Picks
Colorado at Arizona
Colorado is 0-4 and has played like an 0-4 team. They have played four good teams and been out-scored 173-47. The bad numbers have raised expectations beyond what I think this 2-2 Arizona team is ready for. Arizona is now 3-19 SU in the past 2+ years. The Wildcats through four games have allowed 34 PPG. The Wildcats have not been a better than 17-point favorite since 2017. This is going to be a tall order regardless of how bad Colorado has looked in their first four games as each of those opponents is better than Arizona. I think this is too many points for a team with just two wins vs. FBS opponents in their last 22 games. Make the play on Colorado.

Pro Picks
Arizona at Colorado
Two bad teams go at it in this matchup, and Colorado is laying nearly a touchdown, only due to playing at home as the Buffaloes are 1-6 ATS dating to last season and come off a 37-14 loss at home to USC. Colorado has only scored a combined 34 points its last four games, and its only win was against an FCS school. Second-year coach Karl Dorrell is having the same problems scoring points as he did back in the 2000s when he coached UCLA. Colorado is second-to-last in the country in yards gained and #127 in passing yards per game. Arizona is having trouble stopping the run, but Colorado is only #87 with 139.2 rushing yards per game. The Wildcats have played a tough schedule, including BYU, San Diego State, Oregon, and UCLA, and Colorado is not a team that should be laying this many points to anyone. Play Arizona.
