Las Vegas Bowl

BYU vs. Arizona

The location of this game is in sin city and you would think that would make for a home field advantage for the Arizona Wildcats since they are so close, but that is not the case. BYU has such a huge following so you can expect the fans to travel as they have in the past when the cougars have played in this game. This game is going to be on turf and you think that would play in favor for BYU but they are just 9-17 ATS on turf since 1993.

BYU’s motivation may be a bit questioned in this game as they looked like they may be heading to the BCS game but dropped games to TCU and Utah down the stretch and have faltered and wanted to play in a bigger bowl game than this. BYU is 4-20 ATS after 2-game road trip and they come into this one flat disappointed it just two weeks to throw away what could have been the perfect season.

On the other hand this is the first bowl game for Arizona in ten years! That gives them the motivation edge in this game and if you read any of our other previews you would know that this is something we lean heavily on. Arizona is excited to play in this game and it shows that the future is bright for the wild cats.

BYU has been a cash burner all year as they have failed miserably against the number at 3-8 ATS. They are also just 1-6 ATS after a conference game and the wildcats are 4-1 with two weeks of rest or more. That shows that they know how to prepare for a game when giving enough time. We have the interesting situation of a team that is unranked in Arizona being favored over a team that is ranked seventeenth in the country. The odds maker knows what they are doing and we feel the same way so we will go with the Wildcats to get the bowl win!
