This is an 8* play on the Utah Utes.

The Utes crushed Cal by a score of 74-44 at home on Thursday, and they wrap up the regular season with a home game against Stanford. Here is what I said prior to Thursday's game: "Utah will wrap up the season with a pair of home games, and they'll need to win both of them to have any shot of playing in the post-season. They lost to Cal at Berkley by just two points earlier this year, and I like their chances of avenging that loss at home tonight. Utah is 12-3 at home, and those three losses were all versus ranked teams. They lost to Oregon, UCLA and Butler all in close games. The losses to the Bruins and Ducks came by a combined seven points. Utah scores an average of 81.9 points per game on 51.6 percent shooting at home, and it will be tough for Cal to match that." Stanford is coming off a 91-72 loss at Colorado on Thursday, and they've lost five straight road games. I expect another blowout in Salt Lake City.

Take UTAH.
