Utah vs. USC 8:00pm
Utah +3 (-115)
In terms of the betting market, this is one of the most lopsided games of Conference Championship weekend. It's being reported that roughly 75-85% of the public money and tickets are behind the USC spread and moneyline. Despite all of that USC action, the 3's on Utah have been hard to come by to this point. They've been available at periods throughout the week, but they've generally flickered back to 2.5. It's important to know that a line move through 3 is more significant than moving through any other number in football. So the fact that we have a heavily bet public team, with the line moving through 3 against them, is a pretty strong betting signal. We are going to grab one of the few 3's available in the market, and our hope is to see this game close at a firm -2.5. We recommend monitoring this line very closely, especially if you have a decent sized wager at stake. If a consensus 3 becomes available at some point before kickoff, this signal isn't nearly as strong. That said, we hate to fade our guy LenDale White and his USC Trojans, but we believe Utah may spoil the USC party tonight. For those wondering who USC's only loss was against this season, it was against Utah. Ohio State will be watching this game closely, as a USC loss may be their best shot at getting into the playoff. Our bet is 1 unit on the underdogs.
