Pick via FOX Sports Betting Expert Geoff Schwartz

This is going to get ugly. Like super-duper ugly. 

The Utes are beat up, and it has cost them against ranked opponents. But they have managed to dominate bad ones — a 55-3 win against Arizona State, a 34-14 win at home against Cal and a win over USC. 

Colorado is bad, and the Buffaloes continue to backslide. They just lost 56-14 to Washington State and their quarterback is day-to-day as we get close to kickoff. Colorado’s defense ranks 120th in points per drive, and if Shedeur Sanders is out, the Buffs won’t be able to score and they can’t play defense. 

I think Utah dominates this game. Utah to cover. 

PICK: Utah (-22) to win by more than 22 points
