TCU vs Utah College Football Picks: The Horned Frogs are (9-1) off a road win 44-14 over UNLV. They are ranked #12 in the polls. QB Andy Dalton was 16/29 for 151 yards and 3 TD's. On the season he has thrown 9 TD's and just 2 INT's. This game depends 100% on which Utah team comes out to play and if they come out to play the entire game. If they play like they did the week before the bye week, you can say good bye to TCU. Otherwise, Utah will be going to Las Vegas. The sports odds posted by the oddsmakers at Sbgglobal.com currently list TCU -2.5 favorites to Utah heading into this matchup.

Now we can focus on the next game. Coach kept mentioning we had to play UNLV first. We have to keep our focus. We were able to run the ball. Our defense played great."

The Utes (9-0) are ranked #8 polls. They are off a close win last week 13-10 over New Mexico, you can say that were looking a head to this game. They struggled much of the night on offense, the Utes came into the game averaging a conference best 39 points a game but the defense made up for it with key stops. This will be the game of the MWC season. I Like Utah's chances because it's a home game in front of a sold out crowd, but TCU is obviously a very good football team. If Utah wins its very likely that they will run the table and get a BCS bowl. Their only big threat besides this game is the game coming up in a couple weeks against BYU. It would be interesting to see where a MWC team with one loss to a top 5 team lands in the bowl picture. The online sports betting odds at Sbgglobal.com has the OVER/UNDER in this TCU vs Utah game is set at 43 points.

College Football Picks: TCU has lost four of its last five meetings with Utah. Colorado State almost won and should have taken TCU at home. If the Utes come out fired up the way TCU did against BYU, this game will go to the Utes. TCU's defense is going to make this a great game, but Utah's well-balanced offense at home will keep it very close. Utes are 7-1-1 ATS in their last 9 games after allowing less than 170 yards passing in their previous game. Under is 4-0 in Horned Frogs last 4 vs. a team with a winning record. Over is 8-1 in Utes last 9 games overall.source>>>
