BYU just finished a 10-2 season, rebounding nicely from a 5-7 mark in 2023. The Cougars did have their nine-game win streak snapped, losing to Kansas and Arizona State, but they bounced back with a 30-18 victory over Houston to end the regular season. Neither team has any significant contributors entering the transfer portal, and QB Shedeur Sanders, of course, will start his last game for Colorado before entering the NFL Draft. BYU is 6-1 ATS in its past seven games as an underdog, and Colorado has lost six of its past seven December games outright. The Cougars have gone UNDER four of five December games, and the Buffalos went UNDER their past two games, including a 52-0 trouncing of Oklahoma State in the season finale. BYU QB Jake Retzlaff has thrown for 2,796 yards and 20 TDs with 10 interceptions and a 138.9 QB rating. Colorado is 4-0 UNDER its past four neutral-site games as a favorite of 3.5-10.0 points. The UNDER is 10-1 in Colorado's past 11 neutral-site games as a favorite. The points loom large in this matchup. Take those points with BYU and the UNDER.
