The Arizona Wildcats and Utah Utes meet Saturday night in a week 11 PAC-12 college football showdown at Arizona Stadium. The Utah Utes look for a win after winning five of their last six games. The Arizona Wildcats need a win to rebound from a 1-8 record.

The Utah Utes have lost three of their last five road games. Cameron Rising is completing 63.5 percent of his passes for 1,458 yards, 12 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. Devaughn Vele and Brant Kuithe have combined for 631 receiving yards and 5 touchdowns, while Dalton Kincaid has 21 receptions. The Utah Utes ground game is averaging 219.2 yards per contest, and Travion Thomas leads the way with 742 yards and 14 touchdowns. Defensively, Utah is allowing 23.2 points and 348.1 yards per game. Devin Lloyd leads the Utah Utes with 81 tackles, Mika Tafua has 6.5 sacks and Karene Reid has 1 interception.

The Arizona Wildcats have lost four of their last five home games. Will Plummer is completing 55.6 percent of his passes for 835 yards, 2 touchdowns and 7 interceptions. Stanley Berryhill III and Tayvian Cunningham have combined for 842 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns, while BJ Casteel has 29 receptions. The Arizona Wildcats ground game is averaging 138.3 yards per contest, and Drake Anderson leads the way with 265 yards and 1 touchdown. Defensively, Arizona is allowing 28.6 points and 356.2 yards per game. Anthony Pandy leads the Arizona Wildcats with 62 tackles, Kyon Barrs has 5 sacks and Gunner Maldonado has 1 interception.

The Utes are 21-8 ATS in their last 29 conference games and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The Wildcats are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog and 1-4 ATS vs. a team with a winning record. The over is 5-0 in Utes last 5 games overall. The under is 4-1 in Wildcats last 5 games overall. The Utes are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings.

The Utah Utes are head and shoulders the better team here, but they have had issues on the road this season and this is a look ahead game with Oregon on deck next week. The Arizona Wildcats finally got in the win column last week, so the team should be more confident here, and they’ve been a lot more competitive these last few weeks overall. This is a lot of points to leave on the table. Give me Arizona and the boatload of points.
