Washington State vs UCLA -3.5 O/U 60
In what world do we live in where Washington State should be a dog to UCLA? The Bruins looked good vs the children of the poor, but when they stepped up in class to Utah, they got punched in the mouth. WASU ranks 14th in offensive success rate to UCLA’s 60th.The Cougars also have a big strength of schedule advantage over the Bruins being that they faced Wisconsin and Oregon state and beat them both. UCLA’s yards per play at a massive net 3.5 were mainly masked by the easy competition that they have faced.Washington State’s Cameron Ward has an amazing stat line of 74.5% completions with 13 TDs, 0 interceptions and a 187 rating. The Bruin’s Dante Moore is only at 56% completion with 8 touchdowns. UCLA can run the ball, but Washington State proved that they could stop the run vs Wisconsin and Oregon State. Take WASU plus the points.
Washington State +3.5 – 2.5 stars
Old Dominion vs Southern Miss -1.5 O/U 57.5
This should be a typical Fun belt game where we will see some points. Neither team is all that good on defense with the Monarch’s allowing over 28 points per game and Southern Miss allowing 39. Old dominion is a fast playing team ranking 11th in pace. When they play poor competition, they can poor on the points. Southern Miss has a decent offense against bad teams putting up over 35 if they are not named Tulane or Florida State. The Golden Eagles also allow 6.99 yards per play on defense. I expect both teams to score here and I like this over.
Over 57.5 – 2 stars
