This isn’t a massive change from the preseason, but it is a notable shift after Kansas State opened the campaign as the favorite with Arizona State, Baylor and TCU behind them as trendy sleeper picks. As you’d imagine, the odds for Saturday’s showdown at Rice-Eccles Stadium are razor tight, with Utah sitting as a three-point home favorite, suggesting a game between these two teams on a neutral field would be a pick’em.The main character for Saturday’s game — which kicks off at 10 a.m. local time — is Devon Dampier, the rising star quarterback for Utah. Dampier, who transferred from New Mexico, has put the college football world on notice with his ridiculous statline. He’s completed 73 percent of his passes for 628 yards, seven touchdowns and one interception.It’s hard to poke holes in those numbers, but you can at least raise your eyebrow at the quality of competition.Texas Tech hasn’t played a particularly difficult schedule, either, but the Red Raiders have been just as dominant as Utah against Oregon State, Kent State, and Arkansas-Pine Bluff. Once again, we’re not talking about the 2019 LSU Tigers, but for some reason it feels like Utah is getting more hype and credit for dominating their soft schedule compared to Texas Tech. Additionally, the Red Raiders have a potential star quarterback themselves in Behren Morton, who has posted a similar stat line to Dampier.Michael Leboff is a long-suffering Islanders fan, but a long-profiting sports bettor with 10 years of experience in the gambling industry.
