Utah St +42 @ Alabama Saturday

[Tanko]

I rarely make a play on games that will be a wipe out but, does anyone think Utah St +42 has a chance against Alabama?

Utah St. is a middle of the pack team (around 60-70 in NCAA preseason rankins). Can they stay within 6 TDs of Bama? I think 42 might be just a touch to high for game 1.

2021 Week 2 they played Mercer and won by 34
2019 Week 2 played New Mex St won by 52
2018 Week 2 played Ark St. won by 50
2017 Week 2 played Fresno St won by 31

NM St and Ark St were much worse than Utah St is this year. I'd put 2022 Utah St team on par with Fresno St and better than Mercer. I think the Aggies have a shot at covering.


What say you BMR forum?

No. No. No. I'm not saying I'm playing this game. I'm just considering it.
Big spreads scare the hell out of me.

Alabama 1st half spreads were fuckin’ money last year that’s all I got on this game lol.

Utah st will probably need 10-13pts to cover

Can they do it?

That sounds about right.
Maybe when 2nd - 3rd string Alabama players come in late in the game.... But Utah St might be playing their scrubs too at that point. Also, 2nd team Alabama is better than 80% of 1st teamers everywhere else.
