At this point...covering the spread would be a plus.

Whoa I just read Colorado has the Pac 12s best defense. and they only played 2 cupcakes compared to Washingtons 3.

Juanita, Washington - 4-star RB Salvon Ahmed to choose today between UW, Oregon, Stanford, USC, and Notre Dame at 5pm at his HS.

Considered one of the top RB/ATH prospects on the west coast. Ahmed rushed for 1,800 yards and 29 touchdowns as a junior, helping the Rebels advance to its first Class 3A state quarterfinal since 1989.

How many points has the Washington defense allowed so far in 2016? How many has Colorado?

They are going to have to take some chances on offense which is way too conservative and predictable. They are also going to have to force some turnovers in order to have a chance. It's definitely possible.

If the polls are almost worthless this time of year, so are ranking teams by stats. Talk to me about who has the top defense after 9 conference games. Then we will have a reasonable comparison. And of course it could be someone other than UW. As long as they win I don't care either way.

If I didn't know any better, and lived in a SportsHoopla vacuum, there's like 37 Pac-12 Games this weekend

And Oregon is playing in 30 of the right? Or at least the number of threads related suggests it.

Well they DO take football seriously serious. Football is Life in Oregon

Ah like I said I read it somewhere. Colorado is leading in total D. UW is leading in scoring D

Spread opened at -10 Washington. As of today, it's escalated to -14 at most books.

Yep, not sure if the Beaver O has made it past page 1 of the playbook yet...well that and all the dropped balls so far.

GL to the BB Boys here and welcome to Corvallis again.

Thanks Wallace. Good luck to your team this season. I always liked Oregon State, always thought they were a classy outfit.............and that 2001 Fiesta Bowl was awesome. I remember that game like it was yesterday.

That's a dangerous line. Desert Dogs will probably win, but by two TDs? Idk...

I hope they crush them, just wouldn't put my own money on covering if it's really at 14.

That a lot of line movement for a couple of days without having any news of injuries or similar forcing the move. Damn. Must be lots of money flooding in on that game.

Last year's game was pretty competitive. 49 to 3 if I'm remembering correctly.

UW hasn't won there in over a decade though and there are always weird things that happen when these two play there. No way I'd put money on this game, even if on paper it looks like the sharps might be right.

You are right, but UW doesn't not do well in Arizona. Look up the past meetings between the Huskies and any AZ team in Arizona, and you'll see that it's astonishing how much poorer UW is in the state of Arizona.
