CappersInfo is back with its Washington Huskies vs. BYU Cougars picks and predictions, as we look to give you all of the college basketball advice and tips that you need to beat your online sportsbook for this crucial Tuesday night tilt.

First Round NIT Picks: #6 Washington Huskies @ #3 BYU Cougars

First Round NIT Betting Lines
#6 Washington Huskies +5.5
#3 BYU Cougars -5.5
Over/Under 146

This is absolutely the most intriguing of the first round games here in the NIT. BYU is a team that beat absolutely no one this year, and the only reason that it is a No. 3 seed here in the NIT is because of the revenues that a game here at the Marriott Center is sure to bring. There is no doubt that the hometown crowd is going to be giving it everything it has for the hometown Cougars, but we really don’t think that it is going to matter all that much. The Huskies played well enough down the stretch to at least get themselves into this tournament, something that was nowhere near a foregone conclusion just three weeks ago. The squad pushed Oregon, the eventual Pac-12 champs to overtime in the quarterfinals in Las Vegas, and it has just one regulation loss, that coming to UCLA, since February 20th. The Cougs are 1-6-1 ATS in their last eight games overall for a reason. Perhaps BYU is going to be able to escape from this game, simply because it has one of the best home court advantages in the Western side of the country, but we really don’t see this one being a game separated by all that many points in the end.

The time is here for more of our sparkling CBB picks, as we look at the schedule for basketball for Saturday night. The Washington Huskies and UCLA Bruins will have it in a nationally televised game, which can be seen on the college basketball TV schedule on CBS.

UCLA vs. Washington Live TV: CBS2

Washington is one of these teams that really could get into the NCAA Tournament still from totally off of the radar. The team is 17-13 with an RPI of 85 and an SOS of 43, and there are some decent wins in the bunch. Win this one, and that would ride the winning streak up to four games and give the Selection Committee something to think about as long as U-Dub doesn’t totally flame out of the Pac-12 Tournament next week. G CJ Wilcox has slowed down a little bit over the course of the last few games, but he is still the man that can really take this team over when he needs to. We really like the Huskies in this one, knowing that the Bruins have to have the sense that they are already in the NCAA Tournament without any further struggles. They really looked like a disinterested team on the road against the Washington State Cougars earlier this week, and the history really isn’t all that great either. The Huskies have won five straight meetings here in Seattle, and though only three of those five have been covered, there is no doubt that they aren’t going to have to win the game by a slew of points to get the ‘W’ on the college basketball odds. U-Dub keeps its tourney hopes alive on Saturday afternoon.

CappersInfo is back with its Washington Huskies vs. Arizona Wildcats picks and predictions, as we look to give you all of the college basketball advice and tips that you need to beat your online sportsbook for this crucial Wednesday night tilt.

There’s not a ton to like tonight about the Wildcats when you really look at it. The underdog team is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 games in this series, and for the most part, that underdog has been Washington. The Huskies managed to cover by a hook the first time that these two teams met in a very close game at the Alaska Airlines Arena, and that marked their fifth cover in their last six games in this series dating back to the 2010-11 season meetings. Arizona has really been a poor ATS team of late, failing to cover four in a row, losing two of those games outright. Washington isn’t exactly on fire right now either with just two SU victories and five covers in its last nine games, but this is the biggest opportunity of the season. Getting into the NCAA Tournament is somehow still within reach for the Huskies, but it’s going to take beat Arizona at some point down the line, either here or in the Pac-12 Tournament to make that even remotely a possibility. This could be an interesting spot to take a heck of a lot of points.

CappersInfo is back with its Oregon Ducks vs. Washington Huskies picks and predictions, as we look to give you all of the college basketball advice and tips that you need to beat your online sportsbook for this crucial Wednesday night tilt.

College Basketball Picks: Oregon Ducks @ Washington Huskies
Date: Wednesday, February 13th, 11:00 ET
Location: Alaska Airlines Arena, Seattle, WA
Oregon vs. Washington Live TV: ESPN2

GT Bets Banner

This is an ugly game to try to handicap on the college basketball lines. The Ducks have failed to cover six games in a row, and they have totally lost their offensive ways. Washington was just beaten up by a bad USC Trojans team, and it now knows that it is probably going to have to win out in the regular season to go into the Pac-12 Tournament with a realistic chance of dancing this year. Both of these teams know that they can score some points, and that was evident when there were 157 put up when these two met the first time. However, the Ducks are averaging just 56.5 points per game in their last four, and they just aren’t quite the same team with G Dominic Artis battling a foot injury. That really limits this rotation for sure, and it is showing on the court and on the scoreboard. Washington’s offense really isn’t all that stellar if G CJ Wilcox isn’t putting up huge numbers. Wilcox scored just eight against the Trojans, and as a result, the team only put up 60 points. The oddsmakers are going to make the mistake of looking at recent history in this series, and that’s not indicative of the low scoring battle that we figure will ensue here in Seattle on Wednesday night.

Oregon vs. Washington Pick: Under 138
Oregon vs. Washington Prediction: Oregon 67 – Washington 61

CappersInfo is back with its Arizona Wildcats vs. Washington Huskies picks and predictions, as we look to give you all of the college basketball advice and tips that you need to beat your online sportsbook for this crucial Thursday night tilt.

Washington is in dire need of a big time win, and this is going to be a tough one to get the job done. The club has lost three games in a row and has dropped two of three from an ATS standpoint. The weapons are there, especially from G CJ Wilcox, who is one of the top scorers in the Pac-12 at 19.0 points per game. If he can get the job done from the outside, there is no reason to think that U-Dub doesn’t at least have a shot at pulling off this upset. Arizona rebounded from its terrible loss at home against the UCLA Bruins to beat the USC Trojans by 24 points. Still, this is a team that feels like it has something wrong with it. The offense is there, but the defense has been wildly inconsistent, holding two of the last five foes to 50 and 54 points, but allowing 70 or more to the other three. The club has gone just 2-5 ATS in spite of the fact that it is 5-2 SU, and this could be problematic. This one means a heck of a lot more to Washington than it does to Arizona, and we think that this could be an upset in the making at Alaska Airlines Arena.

The time is here for more of our sparkling CBB picks, as we look at the schedule for basketball for Saturday night. The Stanford Cardinal and Washington Huskies will have it in a nationally televised game, which can be seen on the college basketball TV schedule on FOX Sports Net.

Free College Hoops Picks: Washington Huskies @ Stanford Cardinal
Date: Saturday, January 12th, 11:00 ET
Location: Maples Pavilion, Palo Alto, CA
Washington vs. Stanford Live TV: FOX Sports Net

Both the Huskies and the Cardinal are relatively comparable teams this year. Both are going to need big time years in the Pac-12 to get the job done to get into the dance, and it doesn’t really seem all that likely that either is going to be able to do so. Stanford had gotten off to a terrible start in conference play, losing at both USC and UCLA in a span of three days before coming home and beating the Washington State Cougars three days ago. Meanwhile, Washington has lived on the road of late, playing four games just since December 13th away from Seattle. The last two were both big time upsets over Wazzu and the Cal Golden Bears, and now, the team gets to come on the road to Maples Pavilion. G CJ Wilcox has been hot all year long, especially here in the Pac-12, where he has put up 18 and 19 points in his last two games. He’s got a great nose for the ball and is a complete player, and he is the reason that the Huskies are going to be able to come on the road and at least challenge in this one. This is a whole heck of a lot of points to be giving a team that has played great ball on the road this year.

Washington vs. Stanford Pick: Washington Huskies +7.5

The time is here for more of our sparkling CBB picks, as we look at the schedule for basketball for Wednesday night. The California Golden Bears and Washington Huskies will have it in a nationally televised game, which can be seen on the college basketball TV schedule on ESPN2.

Free College Hoops Picks: Washington Huskies @ California Golden Bears
Date: Wednesday, January 9th, 11:00 ET
Location: Haas Pavilion, Berkeley, CA
Washington vs. California Live TV: ESPN2

If you’re going to back the boys from Berkeley in this one, you know that you’re relying on G Allen Crabbe and G Justin Cobbs to get the job done. These two are the heart and soul of this team, and they are combining to score more than half of the team’s points per game this year. Crabbe is one of the top scorers in the entire country, averaging 21.4 points per game, and he rarely sits, averaging over 34 minutes per game on the court. The junior has had four straight games with at least 21 points scored, and he has missed a grand total of just four minutes of game time in his last three games. On the other side of the court though, we really like the way that the Huskies are playing at the moment. The team started off Pac-12 play by beating the Washington State Cougars on the road, and that marked U-Dub’s fifth win in its last six games, most of which have come by suitable margins. The Huskies have covered three of the last four in this series, and thy did win by 21 points here at Haas Pavilion last year. Cal has proven beatable at home, as the Harvard Crimson, Creighton Blue Jays, and UNLV Runnin’ Rebels have all done it recently. The Huskies might be the next added to that list.

The Washington Huskies and the Boise State Broncos are going to square off on the Las Vegas Bowl odds and betting lines. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our Las Vegas Bowl picks & predictions for football for what should be a great game on Saturday.

Las Vegas Bowl Picks: Washington Huskies vs. Boise State Broncos
Date: Saturday, December 22nd, 3:30 ET
Location: Sam Boyd Stadium, Las Vegas, NV
Las Vegas Bowl Betting Odds: Boise State -5.5
Washington vs. Boise State Live TV: ESPN

The Broncos have to get tired of the Las Vegas Bowl, knowing that this is the third straight year that they are coming to Sin City. That being said, this have won and covered both of the last two games against Pac-12 teams, and they have a great history of playing against the big conference boys. Washington though, has had a great under Head Coach Steve Sarkisian, as the team stuck around last year against the Heisman Trophy winner, QB Robert Griffin III and the Baylor Bears in the Alamo Bowl, and it pulled off the upset of the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the 2010 Holiday Bowl as double digit underdogs in a dominating performance.

Bovada Sportsbook

The difference this year with the Broncos is that they aren’t nearly as good as they were in years past. Yes, they won 10 games again this year, but they weren’t nearly as dominating in doing so, especially with the losses to what turned out to be pretty average or above average Michigan State and San Diego State outfits. QB Joe Southwick is definitely not QB Kellen Moore by any stretch of the imagination, and if not for the defense, Southwick probably would have lost his job. It just doesn’t cut it to throw for just 2,466 yards and 17 TDs when you’re playing for a team that could have busted the BCS.

Meanwhile, the Huskies were a 7-5 team this year that played against a truly hellacious schedule. Not only did they play in the Pac-12, where they had to take on a number of fantastic teams, but they scheduled the LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge as well. In spite of all of this, the club allowed just 353 yards and 23.8 points per game. The offense has shown its potential over the years, and RB Bishop Sankey and QB Keith Price could put a lot of points on the board in spite of the fact that the unit only scored 35 total touchdowns on the campaign. We definitely want the points on our side in this one, and we wouldn’t be surprised if this game ends in an upset.

Washington vs. Boise State Pick: Washington Huskies +5.5
Las Vegas Bowl Score Prediction: Washington 24 – Boise State 20

The Las Vegas Bowl is one of the games on the college football bowl schedule this year, and today, I’m set to make my NCAA football pointspread picks for the ‘total’ in this clash. The Washington Huskies and the Boise State Broncos are going to do battle at Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas, NV. Join me for my Las Vegas Bowl tips for this 3:30 p.m. ET kickoff that can be seen on ESPN.

I’ve got a real tough time with this ‘total’ in the Las Vegas Bowl, knowing that both of these teams have great defenses. The truth of the matter though, is that this is a game that should feature a ‘total’ in the high-30s, not the mid-40s. What really tips this one off the scales for me though, is that fact that neither offense has shown much of a pulse, really all season long.

2012 Las Vegas Bowl
Washington Huskies (7-5, 7-5 ATS) +5.5
Boise State Broncos (10-2, 6-6 ATS) -5.5
Over/Under 44

When you look at the games against the best teams that the Broncos played this year, you have to be very unimpressive and underwhelmed when push comes to shove. They only played five games all year long against teams that ultimately went on to bowl eligibility, and in those games, the average game reached a total of just 32.2 points per game. Heck, the Fresno State Bulldogs, who only scored 10 against this Boise State defense, averaged eight more points than that per game by themselves.

And it isn’t like Washington isn’t battled tested either. They played against one of the most brutal schedules in America this year, yet they still held teams down to just 353.0 yards and 23.8 points per game. Take out the four worst defensive outings of the year, three of which came against teams that have significantly better offenses than the Broncos do, and what’s left is nothing but teams scoring anywhere from three to 24 points against this unit. QB Keith Price really should have been able to do more this year than throw 18 TDs, which is about how many it felt like he threw during last year’s Alamo Bowl against the Baylor Bears alone. He might get two scores against this Boise State defense, but that’s going to be it in the end. There’s just nothing here that makes me think this game is going to get into the 40s without a lot of help from the defenses and the special teams units.

Making sports betting picks is one of my specialties, and today, I’m making my Saturday Football Tipster pick based upon the football trends and Week 11 college football odds for the Utah Utes vs. Washington Huskies game on Saturday, November 10th at 10:30 p.m. ET.

Utah Utes (4-5, 5-4 ATS) -1
Washington Huskies (5-4, 5-4 ATS) +1
Over/Under 47

There is a lot of talk about how much better the Utes have been playing in the last few weeks, and this really has caught my eye that they are favored here on the road in Seattle. It’s true that Utah has won its last two games by convincing margins, a 49-6 win over the Washington State Cougars and a 49-27 victory over the Cal Golden Bears. Take that all for what it’s really worth though, which in my opinion, isn’t all that much. This team still hasn’t won a game on the road this year, and it still hasn’t really come all that close either since losing to the Utah State Aggies in overtime back on September 7th.

Washington has quietly played some better ball as well, and it has done so against a much better schedule. Yes, the Huskies also beat down Cal in this stretch, but they did so on the road, not at home, and instead of playing against a lousy Washington State team, U-Dub beat the Oregon State Beavers. Washington still has an atrocious offense, but defensively, this team hasn’t really allowed all that much, save for the best teams that the Pac-12 has to offer offensively.

Remember that last year when these teams met, the Huskies were clearly the better side, and they walked away with a 17-point win as 10-point underdogs. Bowl eligibility can be had with a ‘W’, and Head Coach Steve Sarkisian knows just how important that really is for a program that hasn’t achieved all that much extended success for the last several years. Go with the Huskies at home.

The 2012 college football season is back, and here at Cappers Info, we’ll be looking at some of the best games on the docket each and every week, as we try to make the most money possible off of the CFB odds for the week. Join us on Friday night, as we make our Washington Huskies @ California Golden Bears free picks and predictions for what should be a great clash on the gridiron.

Week 10 College Football Picks: Washington Huskies @ California Golden Bears
Date: Friday, November 2nd, 9:00 ET
Location: AT&T Park, San Francisco, CA
CFB Betting Odds: California -3.5
Washington @ California Live TV: ESPN2

If it looks like a fish and smells like a fish, there must be something fishy about it. Washington is coming off of its biggest win of the year, a 20-17 upset of the Oregon State Beavers last week. The team does have four losses, but those losses have come to the Oregon Ducks, LSU Tigers, USC Trojans, and Arizona Wildcats, all of which are ranked in the Top 25 in the land and two of which are in the Top 10. There really is no shame in any of those losses. Meanwhile, Cal is coming off of two bad losses to the Utah Utes and the Stanford Cardinal, and it has played a significantly easier schedule to date. In the end though, QB Zach Maynard is putting up significantly better numbers than QB Keith Price, and we don’t think that he is going to turn the ball over four times like QB Sean Mannion did last week. That’s why Cal is favored in this one in spite of what it looks like should be the case, and we think that Head Coach Jeff Tedford will keep his team’s bowl hopes alive with a win on Friday night in front of a national audience.

BovadaThe Oregon State Beavers and the Washington Huskies are set to kick off their college football clash on Saturday 10/27, and I’m set to make my college football pick for the affair at CenturyLink Field. Kickoff is set for 10:15 ET, and I’ve got the perfect NCAA football pick for this outstanding clash.

#8 Oregon State Beavers (6-0, 5-1 ATS) -5
Washington Huskies (3-4, 3-4 ATS) +5
Over/Under 48

I really got jobbed last week on the last game of the night, as I really should have had the ‘under’ in the San Diego State/Nevada game. But alas, I move onward and upward, and I’m taking my chances on the last game of the night on Saturday this week as well, knowing that Joe Public is only going to continue to push as hard as it can on the Beavers.

Call me a pessimist, but I still refuse to believe that the Beavers are going to finish the year ranked in the Top 25 when all is said and done. Who the heck has this team beaten this year? Okay, a road win at Arizona, a road win at UCLA, a home win against Wisconsin… The wins are good, but they aren’t great. This isn’t the greatest game in the world either, but it comes against a Washington team that might legitimately be one of the best 30 or so in the country in spite of its 3-4 record. Remember that the losses have come to LSU, Oregon, USC, and Arizona, and it is clear in my eyes that the Beavers would be whooped by at least the first three of those teams.

What I really don’t like about this one is the idea that Oregon State has covered eight in a row and won seven of the last eight SU in this series. Still, I think that Washington has the better team believe it or not, and here at CenturyLink Field, that should mean that an “upset” is brewing.
