Cal Baptist vs. Utah Valley Odds & Betting Predictions - February 20, 2026

We hit this two weeks ago taking the points with Abilene Christian, and I’m back on the wagon here, fading Utah Valley. Both of these teams just lost to Utah Tech by less than two possessions. If Baptist can win this game, they have the inside track to the #1 seed and a regular season crowd because the schedule really lightens up. Just from a preference perspective, I love road dogs who can defend and don’t rely on the three ball and that’s the Lancers to a T. Top rated defense in the WAC, POY in the WAC in PG Dominique Daniels and one added bonus this is the best offensive rebounding team maybe in all of low major hoops. So lower scoring game, they don’t need threes to fall and if they are struggling to hit jumpers, they’ll likely grab 12 to 15 offensive baords. And we can always get a Daniels hero game, he’s scored 61 in the last two games, and COOKED this Utah Valley team for a careet high 47 in the first meeting, an OT win.
