Air Force at Utah State picks and predictions
Prediction
Utah State 70, Air Force 58
Moneyline
Utah State (-900) is far too steep to warrant a wager. You should never risk 9 times your potential return on a standalone wager, and this is too steep to even add to a parlay.
PASS.

Against the spread
Utah State is the clear favorite here, but Air Force’s pace (351st nationally) makes a 12.5-point spread tough to overcome. PASS.
Over/Under
The last 6 USAFA-USU games have gone live at lower totals. The Under is 3-1-1 in the Aggies’ last 5 overall.
The Falcons have the perimeter defense to keep the Aggies inside the arc perhaps more than they want to. USU has had some big shooting nights in the last 4 weeks or so. The Aggies are in fade territory in that category, and a lower total here is the play.
TAKE THE UNDER 137.5 (-105).
