We have reached week eight of the college football season and on Thursday it’s a Pac 12 showdown.
The struggling UCLA Bruins make the trip to Stanford Stadium to take on the Stanford Cardinal. The Cardinal have won the last ten games played between the two teams.
UCLA Bruins
The UCLA Bruins are coming off a bye and hopefully, they really improved because they have really struggled this season.
They have played a tough schedule, but they have been favored in two games and haven’t won either of those. The one win came against the Washington State Cougars in a high scoring shootout.
[dfads params=’groups=220&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
In their last game they were favorites at home against a very bad Oregon State team and all they did was let them score 48 points and that led to a loss.
The biggest issue this season for the Bruins has been the way the defense has been playing. They are giving up 37.7 points per game, and they need to improve in this game.
They aren’t facing a great offensive team, so the defense needs to step up to the plate and show some pride in this one.
Stanford Cardinal
On the other side of this matchup is the Stanford Cardinal who sit with a 3-3 record but they have won two straight games including a huge win in their last game against the Washington Huskies.
They gave up 13 points and that led to a victory. This isn’t a great offensive team so to have success it needs to be the defense that is strong.

On the offensive side this team is facing a lot of questions. Davis Mills and K.J. Costello are both questionable in this game, and if neither of them can go, they are going to have some big issues.
Davis Mills has been the better quarterback this season, so if he is healthy, he will be the guy getting the start but hopefully one of them is healthy.
In this game the offense needs to attack the terrible defense of the Bruins and if they can do that, they should have no issue in this game.

I am assuming that the Cardinal will have one of their quarterbacks and I think as long as one of them can go, they should have no issue in this game.
4* Free NCAA Betting Pick: Cardinal -6
The Bruins defense isn’t going to have any answer, and this game is going to get ugly earlier. Back the Cardinal to win the game and cover the spread.
