Point Spread: 4.00 | -112.00 UCLA (Away)
Result: Loss
I trust UCLA's defense to keep them in this game if not prove instrumental in the Bruins upsetting Oregon State.
UCLA is surrendering just 12.2 points a game. Defensive end Laiatu Latu, perhaps the premier pass rusher in the country, and linebacker Darius Muasau have a combined nine of the Bruins' 18 sacks. UCLA has recorded 44 tackles for a loss. This is in just five games, too. Oregon State has permitted 30 tackles for a loss.
The Bruins rank No. 3 against the run. They can bottle up Oregon State's two good running backs, Damien Martinez and Deshaun Fenwick, forcing DJ Uiagalelei to beat them. I don't believe Uiagalelei is a good enough quarterback to do that.
Oregon State just put up 52 points on California. That might have caused some line inflation here because I believe UCLA is the better team.
