The line on the Oregon State Beavers vs. Utah Utes opened at Utah -10 at some books but has hovered between -11 and -12 since. Bookmaker.com had Utah betting odds at -11 by midweek.

The Beavers shocked everyone last weekend after knocking off top ranked USC.

Can they beat another ranked team in Utah?

Gambling911.com believes the line on this game should be more around Utah -6 ½, hence there is a pretty big overlay here. The betting action on both sides was relatively even during the midweek.

Oregon State is a 2-2 club. Utah is 5-1.

Last year, the Beavers beat the Utes at home during their first game of the season by a score of 24-7. They were a -5 ½ favorite in that one.

Oregon State has lost its two road games of the season - one in Stanford as a -2 ½ favorite and another in Penn State where they got pummeled.

Utah has only lost one game in their last 10. Only Michigan on the road was considered competition to the Utes so far this season and they just barely won there by 2 points.

A strong stat in Oregon State's favor is that they are 39-17 ATS in their last 56 games following a ATS win. But the Utes have similar stats. They are 36-17-2 ATS in their last 55 games following a S.U. win. Utah is also 24-8-1 ATS in their last 33 non-conference games.

Tough to bet on this one. Can Utah really cover by 11 points against a team that just beat NCAA darling USC? Is Oregon State for real? Can the Beavers win on the road against a team like Utah?

No opinion here. We have a pick on the Missouri/Nebraska game so check out www.gambling911.com for that free pick and more.
