Cal coach Jeff Tedford is 6-1 against the Huskies.

Washington is 4-7 on the season and 6-5 against the spread. The Huskies are coming off a win last week over

Washington
State after losing four in a row. All four of

Washington’s wins have come at home.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL have made
California 7-point road favorites over

Washington on Saturday night. The over/under total for this game has been established at 58.

Cal is scoring 31 points per-game thanks to their rushing attack. Jahvid Best started the year for

Cal and rushed for 867 yards in nine games, but a concussion has put Best on the sidelines, where he will be today. In his place, Shane Vereen has rushed for 352 yards in the last two games with four touchdowns.

Washington is allowing 28.2 points per-game and has one of the worst rushing defenses in the Pac-10, giving up 155 yards per-game.

Washington is scoring 24.6 points per-game, but the Huskies offense all runs on the arm of Jake Locker. Locker has thrown for 2,552 yards with 18 touchdowns this season.

Cal is giving up 22.9 points per-game on defense, but the Bears have struggled against the pass, allowing 257 yards per-game through the air.

The key in this game is if Vereen can continue to run as he has the last two week. Since he came on late in the season, he should have fresh legs to keep piling up the yards.
Washington will rely on Locker to lead the way as the

Cal defense should be able to contain the run. Locker will need to match touchdowns with the

Cal offense to give the Huskies a chance to cover and win.
