The UCLA Bruins (4-2, 1-2 Pac-12) and Stanford Cardinal (2-4, 1-3) meet Saturday at Stanford Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the UCLA vs. Stanford odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
The Bruins are away for the 3rd time in 4 games, and the road hasn’t been kind to UCLA. After winning 35-10 at San Diego State back on Sept. 9 in a non-conference game, the Bruins lost 17-14 at Utah on Sept. 23, and 36-24 at Oregon State last time out last Saturday. It’s also 0-2 against the spread (ATS) in road conference game this season.
The Cardinal pulled off the improbable comeback last Friday at Colorado. It trailed 29-0 at halftime, shutting off many TVs across the country. However, for those who stuck around, they saw Stanford post a 46-43 comeback victory in 2OT. While Stanford still has a lot of work to do, it saved its season, for now.
