Free Pick: UCLA -3.

This Washington State story is about to come to an end. They have the #2 passing attack in College Football averaging 407 passing yards per game but they only average 126.5 rushing yards per game. Their #1 RB is averaging just 3.7 Yards Per Carry. You're not going to beat good football teams with a 1 dimensional offense.

This Bruins defense ranks 1st in the Pac-12 surrendering just 11 points per game. They're also allowing just 200.7 passing yards per game and have held each of the last 3 quarterbacks that they've faced under 200 passing yards. It's a very physical unit that plays downhill and dominates the line of scrimmage.

The Cougars have yet to play a true road game either. They went into Colorado State and beat up a bad Rams team week 1 but have played at Home every week since. It's a lot harder to get your protection set up front or change plays at the line of scrimmage in a packed Rose Bowl stadium full of 90,000 fans going nuts.

UCLA also runs the ball very well which should help keep that potent Cougars passing attack out of rhythm and their defense fresh. Carson Steele and T.J. Harden were tasked with replacing Zach Charbonnet who was drafted 52nd overall by Seattle. They've done a great job, combining for 536 yards on 77 carries. That's a 6.96 yards per carry average. Oregon State just ran for 242 yards on 6.39 yards per carry against Washington State the last time they played too.
