Point Spread: 21.50 | -110.00 UCLA (Home)
Result: Win
The set-up: Chip Kelly and UCLA are 0-4 to open the year, most recently falling 38-16 at Colorado last Friday. Washington comes to town off a 44-23 win over BYU and I think it gets caught looking past its lowly opponent today.
The teams: Washington comes in complacent in my opinion after four straight victories of the "rocking chair" variety. Last week QB Jake Browning had 277 yards and a TD, while the run game produced 187 yards. The Huskies allow just 11.6 PPG.
UCLA starting QB Wilson Speight was injured in the first game and it's taken the team some time to adjust. Backup Dorian Thompson-Robinson has been decent, last week he was 17 of 35 for 138 yards and for the year he has 660 yards, three TD's and two picks. One bright spot was the play of RB Joshua Kelley, who had 151 yards last week.
The pick: Washington's weakness on defense? Against the run, allowing 126 YPG (ranked 40th.) I'm banking on the more desperate team keeping this one competitive until the final moments. Grab the points.
