UCLA at Washington (UW by 2.5), Thursday night: It’s going to rain in Seattle. Jake Locker is going to play. Rick Neuheisel will get booed. Book them all. Now, who will win? Washington, 21-17.

Stanford at California (Stanford by 7): The Big Game has been a big bust for the Cardinal the past few years. Their Luck changes this week. Stanford, 21-17.

USC at Oregon State (USC by 3): After watching the Beavers get their tails whipped by WSU last week, the choice is easy. It’s just not what you think. OSU, 35-34.

Last week: 2-2 overall, 2-2 vs. spread; Season: 49-15 overall, 32-24 vs. spread.
