Las Vegas Bowl betting
Last year, Northwestern (+6.5) upset Utah, 14-7, in a low-scoring affair. Both teams were without a few key players to injury and NFL. Utah passed for just 73 yards while Northwestern rushed for just 65. Despite a low-set 41.5 point over/under, 21 combined points fell well short of the number.
This bowl hasn't been kind to underdogs lately, as favorites covered 10 of the last 14 outings. Two of the last three underdogs to cover–Boise State in 2017 and San Diego State in 2016–also won outright in convincing fashion. Five straight unders have also cashed, with the game not being played in 2020.
The Las Vegas Bowl has been predominantly a matchup between the Pac-12 and Mountain West. For the first five years of the bowl, it was between the MAC and the Big West until the Big West stopped sponsoring football in 2000. BYU has the most appearances with six, where they've covered the spread three times.
