Oregon vs. Washington, 8:30PM ET (View Matchup)

Oregon is just 2-8 against the spread in their last 10 games in Washington while the favorite is 7-1 ATS in the last 8 games in this series. The over has hit in the last 4 games between these two and in 4 of the last five games played in Washington. Despite a large spread, my pick is with Washington as Oregon’s program has really fallen on hard times. The Huskies should be able to get out to a quick lead and cruise in the second half.
