College Football Betting: Las Vegas Bowl Puts No. 22 Utah in Hot Seat

This Saturday, the No. 22-ranked Utah Utes will square off against
the Colorado State Rams in the Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl. The Utes are
slight -3.5 favorites, but don’t underestimate the Rams. A nine-game
winning streak from September to November had the NCAA betting community
wondering what the Rams were capable of.

Expect Colorado State quarterback Garrett Grayson to be front and
center at the year-end event. He threw for 37 touchdowns this season and
an impressive 3,779 yards. His powerful arm has already helped his
franchise overachieve in 2014 (they were 10-2 against the spread) and
has shown no signs of slowing down.


However, Utah is favored for a reason. While they may not have put
forth numbers as intriguing as their opponents, they went up against
top-ranked opponents. The Rams didn’t face any top 25 opponents;
whereas, the Utes faced five of them, and won two.


With what ended up being an 8-4 record (compared to Colorado State’s
10-2 record), Utah managed to win enough to get in contention for the
Las Vegas Bowl this December. It’s that valuable experience against
top-caliber competition that gives them the edge.
