Utah Utes Football

The Utah Utes football team is entering the 2023 season with high expectations and the potential for another successful campaign.

Betting on the Utah Utes

Utah Utes Point Spreads

Utah managed an 8-6 record against the spread in 2022. Favored teams — those whose point spreads are preceded by a minus sign — need to win by more than that amount to win against-the-spread, while underdogs (plus sign) just need to lose by fewer.

Here’s how a Utes spread might look:

• Utah +9.5 (-110)
• Washington -9.5 (-110)

If the Utes lose 24-21, they’re still winners ATS, since they lost by fewer than 9.5 points. Washington, favored by 9.5 here, would need to win by 10 or more to cover the spread.

Utah Utes Over/Unders

Instead of betting on the margin of victory, you can also bet on how many points will be scored in a Utes game. This is called an over/under, or total, and is a common bet to make on college football.

If oddsmakers set the total at 47 points for that game against Washington, then a 24-21 final is a win for bettors who took the under. If you took the over, you’d be hoping for at least 48 points between the teams. You can also bet totals for one team or the other if you have a strong feeling that way.

Utah Utes Moneylines

You can also keep it simple and just place a moneyline wager on the Utes. Instead of worrying about how much they win by, moneylines are outright bets: If the Utes win, so do moneyline bettors.

The pricing is where things get somewhat more complicated, though. If the Utes are +175 underdogs, for example, a $100 bettor would make $175 in profit when they win. A -175 favorite would require a $175 bet to earn $100 in profit. These odds are easiest to understand with $10 or $100 increments.

Utah Utes Props

Props are a great bet for those coming in from the fantasy football streets since just like fantasy they involve tracking a single player's stats.

There’s a wide variety of player props out there, and some popular props to wager on for the Utes this year could include over/unders on Rising's passing yards, rushing touchdowns, or odds on the first player to find the end zone in any given game.

Utah Utes Futures

A great part of betting is being able to take either side of something. If you have a strong conviction, you could bet on the Utes to win more or less games than oddsmakers are expecting this year, for example.

This type of bet is a future, and it involves betting on the outcome of an entire season for the Utes. Besides their win total, you could bet on their odds to win the Pac-12 or on various players' end-of-season stat lines.
