Point Spread: -1.50 | -106.00 UCLA (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* BLOWOUT on UCLA.
The oddsmakers would like us to believe that these two teams are pretty evenly matched and for the most part they are, however for a number of different reasons I am expecting the Bruins to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable ATS cover. Both teams would stumble down the stretch, hence their inclusion in this year's Alamo Bowl. The Wildcats would fall 38-27 at Baylor on December 6th in the conference championship game. Kansas State is led by QB Jake Waters who has completed 73.9 percent of his passes for an average of 331.3 yards in his last three games. UCLA also has a dynamic pivot calling the shots in Hundley who is heading to the NFL next year; Hundley has thrown for 3,019 yards, 21 TDs and five INT's while completing 70.4 percent of his attempts this year. Hundley is a dual threat back though and is second on the team with 548 rushing yards and eight scores. I think UCLA will be particularly motivated here after the way its season ended, a listless 31-10 home setback to Stanford on November 28th, all it needed was a victory to clinch the South Division and play for the Pac-12 title. While the Wildcats looked very good on the defensive side of the ball for most of the season, note that they gave up 553 yards to TCU and a whopping 584 to Baylor. And that's what it all boils down to, ultimately I like the BRUINS to take advantage of a K-State defense that's now been fully exposed.
