Missouri vs Utah State Prediction: Utah State Chances Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The tournament committee seemed to think a little bit higher of Utah State than most bracketologists. <\/strong>The Aggies appeared to be on the bubble entering the Mountain West Tournament last week, but wins over New Mexico and Boise State not only pushed them into the Big Dance, they helped Utah State receive a 10-seed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Aggies have been eliminated from the first round of the Tournament each of their last eight trips. Those losses in the early years can be pinned on tough matchups when the Aggies were still in the WAC and playing as a 14 and 15-seed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But those excuses evaporated and were not present in 2019 when they lost to Washington by 17 in a 8 vs 9 matchup or in 2021 when they lost by 12 to a so-so Texas Tech squad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Utah State vs Missouri Betting Pick: Missouri Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Missouri doesn’t have much to show for its efforts either. The Tigers have been eliminated in the first round of their last five trips to the NCAA Tournament.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key to this game is going to be how well Utah State is able to handle the athleticism of Missouri. San Diego State is a fair comparison to the Tigers based on their size and approach to defense. The Aztecs swept all three games against the Aggies this season, which does sound some alarms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Missouri vs Utah State Expert Prediction<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Aggies have been playing without a true point guard for the last two months of the season with Rylan Jones battling concussion issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head coach Ryan Odom has been able to scheme around that during the Mountain West slate, but he might be facing a tougher challenge here against an SEC foe that likes to press and play aggressive defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately, this should be one of the more entertaining affairs of the opening round, and we’re drawn toward seeing some points in this one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the Tigers come out with an aggressive press, they’re either going to force turnovers and earn easy buckets, or Utah State is going to break the press and earn open looks for themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both teams play at a brisk pace. Both teams shoot the ball well from three-point range. Both teams shoot the ball well from the free throw lines. This is a “styles make fights” clash, and we believe this one is going over the total. Check out the betting pick below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
