ASU +11.5
CAL -14.5
ore -11.5
OREGON STATE HUGE -6.5


ASU coming off a bye week facing USC in LA will be exaclty what ASU needs to show they are no joke. ASU in their last 6 games are 6-0 ats and 6-0 su. They have the defense to make this a tough game for SC. SC is thin at WR with Smiths injury and this is the perfect spot for ASU to mone in to LA and play their best football.
ASU +11.5

CAL -14.5
Cal back at home in front of a sellout crowd. How can UCLA stop Cal on offense? The only reason why UCLA beat AZ was because AZ cant catch the ball or hold onto it. CAL smokes em

ORE -11.5: I was on Oregon last week and I vowed to never bet them again at halftime last saturday. well they covered and i flip flopped and will bet them this week becasue i think they got their offense going. cant see zona scoring too much here.

osu-6.5: osu willcome out of the gates flying high and crush this washington team. UW put up 21 points agaist a team coming off a 70-63 regulation game. I'd be surprised if UW scores 10+ points, this may be my POY... PLAY OSU BIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

thanks golden one, I just played Oreg State big even though they have burned me a few times this year!

 

[bgold13]

Master- i think they have burned everyone at one point this year. oregon state's losses have all been to top 20 opponents. and we all know UW isnt good. Good Luck Master

BGold, how do you think ASU will hold up against the run?

What do you think about the total in the cal game. Im thinking cal is good for around 42 points, how do you think ucla will fair against the cal D? Good Luck i also like ASU and you just talked me into oregon state.

BGold, how do you think ASU will hold up against the run?

I am not Bgold, but I think our defense has shown against good running backs in Whitehead, Jermelle Lewis and Noah Herron that we can stop the run. LenDale White is a greater challenge, but I would put our "D" on par with Cal's...and they stopped the run nicely.

Looking at the stats for this game, ASU allows 5 less yards overall than USC, .3 less yards per rush and .5 less yards per attempt. ASU is a statistically better defense. USC has a stronger defense, but 11.5 points stronger? I don't think so.

I am biased, but I think ASU defense is the best USC will see all year until the possible title game.

 

[Master Capper]

If Whitehead is out for Oregon would you then downgrade the play on the Ducks? I see he is listed as doubtful at one site and questionable at another

 

[johnnyb.]

why are you guys playing oregon st. ? last i checked they both are bad (identical records) and washongton owns the beavers...
the way to beat huskies is on the ground (like ucla) and beavers are 116th outta 117, ouch.
for good measure, they avg. 3 turnovers every game too!!! i take washington @ home.

 

[bgold13]

oregon's is still a play

johnny- ore st is bad running the ball, but to their credit they have ran against lsu is 25th in the nation, boise is 2nd, cal is 13th, asu is 20th. some damn good d's.
Washington's rush D is 96th

ASU's rush defense should be good against SC. I am not worried about ASU defense too much.

Treynolds- I think a ton of points are scored inthe cal-ucla game.
