(NCAAF) Washington vs. Southern Miss,
Point Spread: -8.50 | -107.00 Washington (Away)
Result: Win
The Washington Huskies take on Southern Miss in the first ever meeting between the two schools. Chris Petersen, Head Coach of UW, has a reputation for putting together winning teams and he's begun to do this in Seattle at the U of W. Petersen's Huskies finished 6-6 this season but their record really doesn't do them justice as they have poured it on towards the latter part of the regular season. In the Husky's last two games of the regular season they scored a combined 97 points and only allowed a total of 17 points. With the extra practice time Washington should come out strong here Saturday afternoon. Southern Miss has a good record but they played a weak schedule and conference. Now they face the best defense in the Pac-12 and will be a serious step-up in level of competition for Southern Miss. Washington is on an 8-1 ATS run as a favorite of 4-10 points, outscoring those nine opponents by 22 ppg. Take the Washington Huskies here.
