Through 3 Quarters
The Washington Huskies were expected to win this one, and they are just one quarter away from fulfilling that expectation. Sitting on a score of 24-17, they have looked like the better team out there today, but there’s still one more quarter to play. QB Dylan Morris has led the way so far for Washington, as he has passed for two TDs and 187 yards on 24 attempts.
With three sacks, the Washington defense has been a true menace for California’s offensive line. We’ll see how many sacks the Huskies can scare up the rest of the game.

What to Know
Get ready for a Pac-12 battle as the California Golden Bears and the Washington Huskies will face off at 9:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium. Both teams have set a high bar for this game after stand-out offensive performances in their previous games.
California netted a 42-30 victory over the Sacramento State Hornets last week.
Meanwhile, you’re bound to get a positive result if you outscore your opponent every quarter, and that’s exactly how it played out for Washington last week. They steamrolled past the Arkansas State Red Wolves 52-3 at home. With the Huskies ahead 28 to nothing at the half, the matchup was all but over already.
The Golden Bears are expected to lose this next one by 7.5. True fans might be the only ones betting on them, currently 0-2 ATS, to cover the spread.
The wins brought both teams up to an identical 1-2. Two defensive stats to keep an eye on: California is stumbling into the game with the 230th most passing yards allowed per game in the nation, having given up 318 on average. Washington has experienced some struggles of their own as they are 165th worst in the nation in rushing touchdowns allowed, with five on the season. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
