The Huskies might not have the respect that the UCLA Bruins have from college basketball fans but sports betting fans know who the Washington Huskies are. They\u2019ve gone 14 and 4 straight-up and 10 and 6 against the BetUS spread. <!--more-->They continue to be a very solid online basketball bet almost every time they take to the court.<\/p>\n<p>UCAL is UCLA. This team, under Coach Ben Howland, is always going to be in the thick of the Pac-10 race. They are a solid team on both offense and defense with Darren Collison and Josh Shipp helping out the youngsters that Howland has recruited. NCAAB betting fans love UCLA\u2019s straight-up record of 15 and 3 but their record against the spread of 8 and 9 isn\u2019t all that great.<\/p>\n<p>Game-day: 1\/24\/2009<\/p>\n<p>Tip-off: 4:00 pm est.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are my personal online betting odds for this game:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>UCLA Bruins\t -6 \u00bd -110<a href=\"http:\/\/www.betus.com\/ats\/11892\/mid\/2183\/default.aspx\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 1px solid #ffffff;\" title=\"Betus NCAAB Betting\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sportsimagestore.com\/showbanner.asp?affid=11892&#038;banid=1399 alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWashington Huskies\t +6 \u00bd -110<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are a few online wagering trends that might help us find a good online bet in this game:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The UCLA Bruins are 36-16-1 against the spread in their last 53 games on the road.<br \/>\nThe Underdog is 4 and 1 against the spread in the last 5 meetings between these two teams.<br \/>\nThe Washington Huskies are 1 and 7 against the spread in their last 8 games at home versus a team with a winning record.<br \/>\nThe UCLA Bruins are 6 and 2 against the spread in their last 8 games versus a team with a winning straight-up record.<\/p>\n<p>The UCLA Bruins will bring one of the top teams in the nation into Washington on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no way that the BetUS oddsmakers don\u2019t make the Bruins a prohibitive favorite in the sportsbook. UCLA has known players, a known program, and always play tough on the road.<\/p>\n<p>But Washington has an inside edge because even though they have lost one more game than UCLA this season, they are still a viable Pac-10 contender. UCLA is going to have to work very hard to win this game.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve set my threshold bet at +6 \u00bd but I\u2019m going to give myself another point.<\/p>\n<h3>UCLA vs. UW Prediction:<\/h3>\n<p>If the Washington Huskies are at +5 \u00bd or higher in the BetUS online sportsbook against the UCLA Bruins come Saturday morning, I\u2019ll be making a wager on Washington to beat the spread at home.<\/p>\n<p>If the Huskies are getting less than +5 \u00bd, then I will have to bet the UCLA Bruins to cover.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UCLA Bruins and the Washington Huskies will both be trying to pick up a win on Saturday when they battle at Edmundson Pavilion.
