Why San Diego State Will Cover The Spread/Win

San Diego State plays very good defense this season. They have allowed just 66.9 points per game, which is the second-best in the Mountain West. Along with that, teams have the lowest field goal percentage, and third-lowest three-point percentage against the Aztecs. San Diego State's defense is a big reason for their success, and that needs to continue in this game. If the Aztecs can play well on the defensive end, they will win this game on the road.

Why Utah State Will Cover The Spread/Win

Utah State needs to compete on offense. San Diego State plays good defense, but Utah State has to be good offensively. The Aggies are second in the Mountain West in points per game, second in field goal percentage, and they get to the charity stripe the fourth-most in the Mountain West. The Aggies have been a problem for opposing defenses this season, and that should continue in this one.

Utah State can rival San Diego State on defense. They do not give up fewer points, but they still play tough. Opposing teams have the third-lowest field goal percentage, and the lowest three-point percentage against the Aggies this season. Utah State is going to make it tough on the Aztecs in this game, and that should help them cover the spread.

Final San Diego State-Utah State Prediction & Pick

Utah State is a better team than the polls give them credit for. They have been able to play very well at home too. Utah State is 11-1 at home this season. San Diego State has lost all six of their games in true road games. With that said, I like Utah State to cover the small spread.
