UCLA vs Washington

[hankcream]

Very Similar teams with the home team only laying 1.5 on a Thursday night ESPN game . I'm leaning on taking the Huskies large especially with Locker playing, does anybody think otherwise?

[Husker36]

Washington is the better team. Both teams coming off a bye but Washington needed the extra time to get healthy. UCLA's win over Texas no longer looks impressive. Husky stadium is a tough place to play.......

Washington 38
UCLA 27

[PorkChop]

Washington has the worst run defense in the nation and UCLA can run the ball.

[herts9]

staying away. won't let rick neuheisel screw me over again like he did in the oregon state game...

[THE PROFIT]

Porkchop said it all. UCLA will run through them like a taco bell value meal. Also, i wouldnt be surprised to see Locker knocked out of the game early.

Fitting end to his career in Washington. Overrated and couldn't win games.

Curious to see what NFL General Manager drafts him. Jerry Jones?

[THE PROFIT]

Ill never understand what all the hype was about this guy

[GoCougs!]

Tough game to cap in my opinion. Everything about the UW is hype. Sark and Holt are mediocre coaches. Locker is a great athelete, but an average QB. UW defense is terrible.

UW is a difficult place to play, but the UW fans are not very loyal and there wont be a full house tonight.

UCLA isn't good either, but they should be able to run the ball.

No play.

[aman86]

with questionable weather gotta lean ucla

[FeelinJuiced]

Washington just doesn't have the defense. But them being at home helps... Not worth betting to me but BOL to y'all

[Ohi0]

If you do not pound ucla and the over i wouldt bet at all. Pistol says bang bang tonight

[Quagmire27]

Locker has those rare games when he looks like a great QB, I don't see it happening in this spot. Too much UW BS surrounding this game. My guess, many of those huskies won't be ready to play, they'll just expect it to happen for them. Neuheisel is easily the better head coach. Given the extra time to prepare, that advantage should be magnified...expecting UCLA to come out the gates hitting in every way.

even in his inexperience, brehaut manages the game well. not the athlete locker is, but he can, and most likely will, give the bruins a win tonight.

[Balco10]

No way UW loses tonight! Tough at home, heavy rain, 40 degrees, and black uniforms...
Thursday night game always favors the home time. Don't be fooled and Locker plays his
ass off tonight in his last home game.
18-13 Huskies

heavy rain?
definately does not favour the qb = locker
tough at home?
not tonight due to the weather. majority of there fans wont show up tonight
block uniforms?
who cares
no way UW loses tonight?
they will get blown out

count it

that's exactly what too many of the huskies players will be thinking, we are a lock.

they are coming into this thing sofT


my only hesitation is Brehaut showing little history in that type of weather...
but that isn't enough to scare me off taking a shot at that plus money.

[eatdust11]

Two bad teams... tough game to call imo.

[uhuhahah]

Ucla

[jackpot269]

I guess in this position ill take the points small to have action !!!!!!!1

LMAO reading this post and then reading your screen name creates an instant classic....good luck in the Apple cup, you'll need it

The Huskies are not a great team by any measure but have played the nation's toughest schedule and are getting healthier coming into their last home game and the last chance for Locker to show he is a great athlete and great Husky (im not saying he has been a great QB, he hasn't, but he didnt create the hype around him either)...combine that with cold, wet weather and a return to Husky Stadium for Rick Neuheisel, where he isn't well liked, and you have a Husky win tonite...give the points, it wont matter, UW rolls

Quagmire, you cannot be serious....the Huskies have lost 3 in a row and you think they will be coming in soft and overconfident?

take a shot at the plus money, can't blame you there, but i hope you are using better logic than you indicated

[Night-Tripper]

It's not even raining in Seattle and if it does start to rain late in the game, it's going to be light.

been raining all week, field already wet, more likely on the way

its also 41 degrees and falling, which feels like 21 if youve been in LA for the past few months

not saying Weather will be the deciding factor, but its certainly a factor

They play on turf, so no sloppy field.
UCLA not a cold weather team!

[crazykind]

thanks for the weather dot com link tripper, but i prefer looking out my window, updates much sooner

i honestly believe it, they will come out lethargic and making many mistakes, some of it will be preparation (coaching), some of it will be the BS surrounding the game, black jerseys, senior night, Lockers last game, i think they will be overconfident and sofT... reading the local rags and player twitters tells me so, we shall see soon enough

[Night-Tripper]

Maybe if you'd clean your window, you'd have known that the Huskies play on an artificial surface.

[crazykind]

gl Quagmire, could very well happen as this Husky team is hard to read...we are both looking at the same angle, just seeing it from a different perspective

we'll find out soon, Go Dawgs!

[crazykind]

lol dude, for you this is an argument, for me a simple exchange of information

GL whatever you play, and also gl with your burgeoning meteorological career

[ireland1946]

very tough game to to cap, having said that
you always got to go with the home team,
even NFL gives - 3 on home team if both teams
just about evenly matched, if bad weather nobody
knows what can happen, both teams prone to make
all kinds of f u c k ups, might as well flip a coin

still leaning towards WASHINGTON need this game more

[big joe 1212]

im waiting for a 2H play

[teaserpleaser]

washington's defense shoulder pads are already bouncing up and down between plays its 6 min into the first qtr!... not good for unders i understand they have no depth but how and the hell can you be that out of shape at this point in the season?

[teaserpleaser]

By the way jake Lockers decision making is horrible

[Quagmire27]

im waiting for a 2H play

ok, now what this game is too close...
