Sulky Huskies: USC Trojans at University of Washington

The USC Trojans are not favored by the NCAA football betting odds against Washington on Saturday, November 12th at Husky Stadium in Seattle because the Huskies do take too kindly to perceived slights and take it out on whoever crosses their path. Said online sportsbook odds stand thus:

Wide receiver Deontay Burnett had seven receptions for 87 yards and one score. However, it was RB Ronald Jones II who ran circles around the Ducks’ rush defense. Jones rushed for 171 yards on 20 carries and tied a school record with four TDs in a single game.

The Washington Huskies
