Utah State To Ride Over Wyoming

It makes a lot of sense on paper why Utah State (20-4, 8-3) is favored in college basketball spreads against Wyoming (12-11, 5-5). However, with how crowded the top of the Mountain West Conference is and Wyoming playing better recently, this matchup does become interesting.

Pick Against the Spread: Utah State -8 -110

From the earlier matchup, it is pretty clear that Utah State has the advantage. The Aggies put up 83 points while holding Wyoming to 59. However, Utah State has gone through some bumps recently that could shift college basketball odds.

While Utah State does not have a commanding lead in the conference, it still had a 7-1 record in Mountain West play three games ago. Over those three games, the Aggies suffered 14-point losses to San Diego State and Nevada. Those losses re-opened the conference to be contested.

However, in the game before facing Wyoming, it looked like Utah State could be finding itself again. It dominated Boise State, covering a college basketball line set at five points.

Sure, that game was at home, and Mason Falslev scored a career-high 25 points, but it was still a big win that could jumpstart Utah State. Furthermore, it is hard not to back the Aggies after what it did to Wyoming in the first matchup.

 

Over/Under Pick: Over 151 -110

While Utah State did pick up an easy win over Wyoming, this is a different Cowboys team. At home this season, Wyoming has pulled off upsets against Nevada and Colorado State.

In both of those wins, the game hit the over, and while Wyoming team might not beat Utah State, it has been playing better, which could lead to a close game. For college basketball predictions, if Wyoming tries to make this game more entertaining than the last matchup, it will be due to its offense.
