Utah is coming into this game with a 12-4 record this season but they have not been playing very well in their recent games. They have lost 2 of their last 3 games with both of those losses coming on the road. They are 3-2 in the conference right now but all 3 of their wins have come at home while their 2 losses have come on the road. They are also 2-2 in their games played at neutral locations this season while being 1-2 on the road so they have struggled a lot more away from home this season. They are going up against a Stanford team that is 8-7 this season and they have been playing well in their recent games. They have won 3 of their last 4 games with 2 of those wins coming on the road and their only loss in that span coming on the road against USC. They are 3-2 in the conference as they do have a close loss at home by 3 points against Arizona State, but they did follow that game up with a home win against a ranked Arizona team. They have some quality wins this season against good opponents and they have been playing much better since their conference schedule started. They just played 3 straight games on the road as well, winning 2 of those, and they are going to be hungry to get another win now that they are back at home. Stanford will cover the spread in this game.
