Pac-10 Week 14 Predictions

Week 14 Pac-10 Predictions
(Last week Truebluebruin 4-0, 0-4 against the spread. Blueandgold 3-1, 1-3 against the spread)
(Overall Truebluebruin 50-22, 26-40-2 against the spread. Blueandgold 50-22, 31-34-3 against the spread)

Oregon State @ Oregon (-8)
(Truebluebruin) It’s nice to know that USC’s run at the Pac-10 title and Rosebowl has FINALLY come to an end. Tonight, the civil war will determine who the Pac-10 will send to the Rosebowl. Oregon, despite a small slip up against Stanford, has been hot all Pac-10 season long, while Oregon State has had a few more bumps in the road. Both teams feature star playmakers that could run away with the game, but considering the game is in Eugene, I’m going to give the nod to the Ducks.
Oregon 35 Oregon State 28
(Blueandgold) Well the Rose Bowl is up for grabs, making this a great matchup for the final weekend with so much on the line (not to mention bragging rights for a year). The Civil War poses two great teams against each other, one with a monster offense while the other with a quick and crafty one. Defense is gonna win this game so I give the edge to the Ducks (although if they give up the yardage they gave to Stanford they are in for a long night).
Oregon 35 OSU 24

Arizona @ USC (-8)
(Truebluebruin) It would be very fashionable to pick Arizona in this game. USC certainly didn’t look like world beaters against the Bruins last week, and the Arizona offense will certainly give USC more of a challenge than the Bruins did. Still, Arizona is coming off of two loses and a much too close victory against ASU, and themselves are struggling. That is bad news on the Road against ‘SC.
USC 24 Arizona 20
(Blueandgold) USC is coming off a win to quiet their critics, but the game against the Bruins may have added more questions to how the offense is functioning. If you look at it, Barkley had a good season, not a great one, but a good enough one. I feel that Arizona's high tempo offense and wildcat formation mix in will overwhelm a USC defense thats going through the motions. I'm gonna go with Arizona on this one.
Arizona 24 USC 21

Cal (-6) @ Washington
(Truebluebruin) Cal is flying high after their road victory in the Big game, while Washington crushed their rival by 30. I think the only reason this line is so close is the combined factor that Washington is at home and they showed signs of an offense against Washington State. Problem is, everyone shows signs of an offense against Washington State. Shane Vereen is on a roll and should be able to run all over the Huskies.
Cal 31 Washington 17
(Blueandgold) Cal should win this one. Washington had one huge win this season and thats about it, they beat who they were supposed to and lost who they were supposed with the exception thankfully coming against USC. Cal is still without best but with an good QB and some receivers they are the favorite. Also Washington's defense isn't that great either so I expect Cal to come away with the W against washington.
Cal 24 Washington 17
