Our Free NCAA Football Pick for vs

Utah has a tough defense and will slow down the UCLA offense but the Bruins will play well enough on the road to cover the number. UCLA has covered the number in five of its last seven versus an opponent from the South Division of the Pac-12. The Utes continue to struggle a bit on offense as they are playing without their top quarterback Cam Rising. Utah is scoring just 25.0 points per game which is 92nd. Final Score Prediction, Utah Utes win but fall short ATS 27-23.
