Foster Farms Bowl

Indiana (6-6, 4-5 Big Ten) vs. No. 19 Utah (8-4, 5-4 Pac-12)

Dec. 28 – 8:30 p.m., Fox

Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, Calif.

Average Line: Utah, -8

I actually see this as another pretty straight forward pick.

Indiana is a competitive team that hung tough in a loaded Big 10 conference this year, but it also had a loss to Wake Forest and narrow wins over both Rutgers and Maryland. On top of that, they’ll be traveling to the west coast.

Utah was still one of the best teams in the Pac-12 despite losses to California and Oregon.
Utah averages nearly 31 points per game and they may put up even more in this one to close the year on a high note.

I’d expect Indiana to be competitive in the first half, by Kyle Whittingham will make the necesary adjustments at halftime to turn this into a bit of a route.

Prediction: Utah 35, Indiana 23
