The Washington State Cougars look like a solid underdog when they host the Stanford Cardinal Thursday night. Stanford is coming off a 77-76 upset win against USC, but this will be its first road game since Dec. 3 and the Cardinal are 0-5 ATS in their last five road games following three or more consecutive home games. Washington State is 9-2 ATS in its last 11 home games and in desperate need of a win after opening league play with three straight losses.

My selection is an 8* play on Washington State.
