UCLA/Arizona St. Thoughts?

[spiderman]

Any UCLA/Arizona St. Thoughts?

- In their last 3 games, UCLA averaging just 17.7 PPG and 260 yards on offense.
- In their last 3 games, ASU has allowed just 15.3 PPG and just under 260 yards on offense.
- On the ground, UCLA has not had any success with just 2.2 YPC in those last 3 games, and their QB, Kevin Craft, is INT Prone.
- Both teams are 4-6 SU on the season.
- ASU has covered just 3 of 10 games this season, and just 1-4 ATS at home, losing to Oregon (by 34), Georgia (by 17), and UNLV in OT.
- In their last 3 games, ASU has averaged 31 PPG and 365 yards on offense.
- In their last 3 games, UCLA has given up 27 PPG, but just 310 yards of offense.
- In 2006, UCLA won this game on the road. Last year, ASU won at UCLA. UCLA is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings, and UCLA is 15-5 ATS in their last 20 Pack 10 games.

Why not take the points in this game? Why is ASU favored by 10 points here?

ASU is 8 to 10 points better than UCLA, is playing at home, and has a lot more to play for. Line should be 14+.

14+ in a pac 10 game against a dissapointing AZ st. team? Come on man... ucla may not win, but thye have a D.

Arizona State -9.5 Strong Play IMO and UNDER 45 parlayed with it

 

[Trueblue]

bullshit TD for AZ st puts them up... jeez

 

[Trueblue]

2h under lean... neither offense is getting a rhythm and both TDs were from defensive efforts. There are only 3 offensive points scored so far and it was from a 53yd FG!

Kevin Craft also injured with a stinger so forcier, who is garbage should see some time... ucla can only leverage on a weak run game..

Stayed put on this . Leaned ASU 2nd H -3 but didnt feel like adding always seems to be a bad omen when I do.

GL all

 

[SportsNut]

Also ASU offense has started slow each week and done better after the half . At least past 3 games ...

I didnt watch it. DId UCLA really go for it on 4th and 19 at their own 27?

 

[shakes]

oh, ESPN gamecast was screwed up.

If Arizona State is a bowl team, then I'm the king of Motherfucking France....they are putrid and lucky UCLA is on their 18th string QB.

Craft is absolutely brutal. ASU has done nothing on offense tonight, and their defense/ST have put up 31 points.

 

[spiderman]

101 Total Yards, 8 rushing yards of offense for ASU. Pathetic.

 

[shakes]

2 pick 6s in the 4th quarter and my 2nd half under gets done in by a 20 yard punt.

 

[Trueblue]

craft is horrible... hopefully we recruit a new qb next year. 2h under should have been a cruise..

Two insanely terrible offenses . I would say if I played UCLA I would be kinda pissed . On the other hand its exactly what I expected from the UCLA offense with the turnovers going for TDS rather then stting up short fields for points .

I said this early on in the season but UCLA's offense on the road is probably bottom 5 in Division 1 Football. Without a real solid kicker they would be up shits creek.

I only focused on UCLA's road games and the last 3 for ASU when deciding on this game . Boiled down to thinking UCLA probably wouldnt crack 10 points and not more then 14 . With making this line -13 so had it real short at 10 then bet down to -9.5 ..

Sad part is UCLA offense actually outplayed the ASU offense .

Before today which I think Craft had 3 Pick 6's here and a fumble for a TD he L3 games were 0 TDs and 9 Ints (@ Cal , Oreg State , @ Wash U) ....

Last 2 away games before today 0 TD 7 Ints and for the season in 4 road games 1 TD 9 Int . Throwing 3 INTs @ Wash is bad in itself.

So if Craft had 3 INTs today then his AWAY SPLITS read:

1 TD to 12 INTs

WoW !

I hope no one watched that mess...GL tmrw fellas long day !
