College Football Betting at Get That Bet — Kelly Hoping For Better Conditions as ASU Hosts Road-Tough Utah

November 1, 2014 by Charles Jay

Taylor Kelly, who was out of the lineup for the Arizona State Sun Devils for six weeks due to a foot injury, is certainly glad to be back in action, but there is no question he would appreciate better weather than he encountered upon his return. On Saturday night he will most likely get it, as his team plays host to the Utah Utes in college football betting action that gets underway at 11 PM ET at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, AZ.

As ASU played the Washington Huskies last week, they encountered a lot of rain and a LOT of wind, and it was very difficult for either offense to operate. Kelly still felt some tenderness in his right foot, but he did manage to plow forward, and he led his team to a 24-10 victory, which also covered the football pointspread as a road favorite.

However, as he threw his final touchdown pass, he took a huge hit, and there was fear that he may have suffered a mild concussion. Tests were negative, so Kelly has been cleared to play. And if he gets into trouble, Mike Bercovici is a very capable backup.

In the college football betting odds that have been established on this game at Get That Bet (http://www.getthatbet.com), Arizona State is a 6.5-point favorite, with a total of 58.5 points.

Kelly is still trying to get his timing down right with the offense, and that might take a while. On hand to make things a little more difficult is the Utah pass rush, which has had more quarterback sacks (35) than any other team in the country. These guys are going to pin their ears back and go after Kelly, who might still be struggling with mobility.

College football bettors might say that Utah has been an overachieving team; they have won six of their seven games, both straight-up and against the football pointspread. And they have done very well on the road, winning games at Oregon State, UCLA and Michigan. So they will not be intimidated by the surroundings.

They are also looking for a little revenge, as Arizona State edged them 20-19 last season, in a game where Utah completed only six passes for 121 yards. Of course, Get That Bet customers are aware that the Utes went through a lot of injury problems at the quarterback position last season, and at this moment Travis Wilson has a firm grip on the job. Known as someone who was more of a dropback passer, Wilson helped his team with a 19-yard run which landed just short of the goal line in the final moments against USC, which set up the winning touchdown pass with eight seconds left. Devontae Booker, who is had over 600 yards over the last four weeks, is someone who is poised to give him plenty of support.

And if coach Kyle Winningham chooses to, he can change up a little at quarterback, because he has a very mobile alternative in Oklahoma transfer Kendal Thompson. However, Thompson is a very unpolished passer, which is why he eventually why Whittongham chose Wilson as his full-time alternative.
