San Diego State vs Utah State Prediction

The Utah State Aggies are racking up the wins this season and have a chance to prove thier start is real. The problem is Utah State has done a lot of heavy lifting at home and outside of a win over Saint Mary’s, the Aggies have been expected to win most of these games. The San Diego State Aztecs are always a tough out at home, they’re elite defensively as usual, and they’ve won and covered 6 of the last 7 games against Utah State. It’s a prove it game for Utah State. I have to roll with San Diego State and the reasonable number.
