Opinions on UCLA +8 @ WaSHINGTON ???????

[sicky123]

I find it hilarious how people only see the angles of the side they're on. UCLA for me. Wash was exposed as a mediocre team.

What areas was Washington exposed in ?

Who has UCLA beaten on the road? That is the question. I know they lost to a shitty Cal team last week on the road.

Well UCLA had its chances to on the road @ nova when nova was playing well, and UCLA was still figuring things out.

and... the big one is the game @ Kansas. Where they could have EASILY won (controlled/ahead a lot of minutes in that game too), but lost by 1 point.

*Also I didn't get to watch, but UCLA was only down 4 w/ 6mins to go in the first matchup. Honeycutt was also in major foul trouble early so didn't get the minutes, and was taken out of the game a bit.

Your whole "anti square" approach to picking games isn't any better than flipping a coin since the public wins games to. It's figuring out which ones that matters. Like the rlm on heat/hornets game that was completely wrong

Amen if that isn't the damn TRUTH

I don't care if UCLA is playing for the Pac-10 title. Plenty of teams have played with a lot at stake and gotten spanked.

If you look at how Washington responds after a loss and then plays a home game one might think they win this game by quite a bit:

Loss to Michigan State (in a tournament) then beat Long Beach State by 27 pts
Loss at Texas A&M then beat San Francisco by 28 pts
Loss at Oregon then beat Cal by 32 pts
Loss at Arizona then beat Seattle University (at Seattle, but still in Washington) by 21 pts

The team is coming off their first home loss of the year (which was because of a horrible 1st half) and it is difficult to predict how they will respond, but UCLA has not shown they can beat Washington (the first game was a 74-63 loss at home). I think Washington wins this game by 10 pts. UCLA does have a legitimate size advantage which might make this game a bit closer than I believe.

I don't think I will actually bet this game, if the line was 6 or even 7 I would bet UW.

like under 150 more than either side. ucla and points tempting but will only bet under.

This!

UCLA playing very well but UW needs the game, coming off a loss, and is very talented.
You cannot depend upon UW to cover the 8, but UCLA might come in flat after trouncing AZ.
Can the UCLA coaches sell the kids they need another victory, to play hard to stay # 1 in PAC-10?
It is a revenge game for UCLA... that might get the UCLA players motivated... revenge is sweet.
Stay away IMO, if you put a gun to my head I would say take UCLA and the 8 pts.

Look at those teams they blew out after the loses tho....Seattle?? Come on UCLA is better than all of those teams, and now are playing they're best basketball with a semi shot at being conference champs..Seattle..lol
