Washington St/UCLA Under 60 (-110)
Wazzou has one of the fastest & effective offenses in the country which brings a 60 pt total as they head south to take on the Bruins. I think the number is too high in this one against a UCLA defense letting up only 12.5 pts/game (ranked 7th) *UCLA unders are 3-1 this season & the only over was against North Carolina Central when the Bruins practically covered themselves*. Chip Kelly's squad operates a lot slower than Washington St as well.
Other notable defensive stats for UCLA:
OPP Pts/play - 0.165 (ranked 5th)
OPP Yds/play - 3.7 (ranked 2nd)
Wait, there's more!
UCLA's defense is top 15 in Sack & Interception percentages which should fair well against the pass-heavy Cougars (throwing 55.26% of time):
Interception %: 5.10 (ranked 8th)
Sack : 10.09 (ranked 13th)
Redzone
Despite putting up 39.7 pts/game, Washington St is only scoring on 78.57% of redzone trips (ranked 82nd)
UCLA's redzone defese? Opponents are scoring 50% of the time (ranked 1st), best number in the country.
This total is high mostly due to Washington St's offense and what they are capable of, this is how I believe the Bruins will counter it. Give me the under.
Go Defense!
