BYU @ Arizona Picks & Props
BYU vs ARIZ Picks
NCAAF PicksThe Cougars are averaging 5.8 yards per rush, with LJ Martin having piled up 490 yards on the ground over their first five games. In relative terms, this is also a weakness for the Arizona defense, which has completely shut down opposing passers while being merely good against the run, allowing 97.6 rushing yards per game. This won’t be an easy game for BYU, especially on the road. But that Iowa State loss has raised enough questions for me about the Wildcats and their ability to compete against top-tier competition. I’m taking the Cougars to win outright.

BYU's four wins against FBS opponents this season came against teams with a combined nine victories through six weeks. And despite that, the Cougars rank 85th in points per quality drive.
That won't get the job done against Arizona, whose defense might be the best BYU has played yet this year. The Wildcats are very good against the run, and do an outstanding job at limiting big plays. And the Cougars struggle to creative explosive plays in the passing game, which will limit their ability to come back if they fall behind.
BYU will find it difficult to score points, and Arizona will do enough at home to get the victory.
