Utah State vs. San Diego State Prediction

I’m backing the Aztecs here. San Diego State has had a tendency to ratchet up the defense at home and this feels like a good buy-low spot on San Diego State and a sell-high on Utah State who is coming off of their 3rd straight win. I’m looking for a bounce back for San Diego State getting back home here, so give me San Diego State laying the points.
