College football betting has UCLA heavily favored at Washington State on Saturday. Just how bad is Washington State? They are 17.5 point underdogs in NCAA football betting at home to a UCLA team that is 1-5 in the Pac-10. College football betting has seen Washington State be non-competitive in most games this season. The Cougars may not do well in this NCAA football betting matchup either as UCLA is coming off a big win last week against Washington. The Bruins are looking for two more wins to get bowl eligible. They should be able to get one of them here against a Washington State team that was pasted 48-7 at Arizona last week in NCAA football betting. All of Washington States conference losses except one have been by 20 points or more. UCLA has the 36-18-1 advantage in the all-time series. Last year they routed the Cougars 28-3 in NCAA football betting.
UCLA is giving up 23 points per game this season so perhaps the Cougars can at least threaten with a backdoor cover in this college football betting matchup. Washington State quarterback Jeff Tuel was injured last week so it may be that Marshall Lobbestael gets the start in this game. It hardly matters since Washington State is averaging only 14.1 points per game. The defense for Washington State is one of the worst in the country as they are allowing a staggering 38.6 points per game.
