    Default Sun Bowl

    Power ratings yield:

    UCLA by 1.5
    Total: 71

    I'm not too hip on this game although if I had to play it, I'd play Northwestern simply because I think UCLA is overrated and overhyped. There were many that thought UCLA might pull the upset against USC and it wasn't even close. I honestly think that the OVER might be the play here because I don't think either side can stop each other. Now, the long layoff may stop them from scoring with timing being an issue in the passing game but these two teams should explode for points.

    Turnovers could be the differential in this game. UCLA has a turnover ratio of +6 and Northwestern has a turnover ratio of +8. Northwestern has turned it over more but created more turnovers. While UCLA hasn't turned it over as often but is not creating the opportunities either. This is a tough one to call but I'll say Northwestern plus the points.

    again about two equal teams with some exceptions...Randy Walker is a much better coach than Karl Dorrel and Northwestern has more playmakers on offense than UCLA...both defenses are pretty bad...so I'm taking the points and the better coached team...

    i had to take the under at 75

    i know what i am getting into with two good offensive teams and two suspect to poor defenses but still 75 points is a ton

    please no OT

    Well BBD, the bad news is I lost my parlay, the good news is I knew I was going to lose so I made a pretty big play on the over.

    Just would have been cool to hit an 11 teamer/ actually with Cal it would have been 10.

    Illusion,

    Thanks. I only played it for a small amount because I thought my loyalties were swaying me too much but, nonetheless, a win. Wish I woulda put more on this to offset the devastating loss of Minnesota.

    Ya know what? I put this in the wrong thread. I meant to say I played Mizzou for a small amount not Northwestern.
