1. Washington wins by three touchdowns — at least
BYU put themselves on the map with a massive upset on the road against Wisconsin. Outside of their stunning upset of the Badgers, BYU hasn’t done much to prove themselves against any other meaningful competition. Washington could be the best team BYU will face all season, and they have to do it on the road.
Squally Canada and Tanner Mangum will only be able to do so much. One misstep by either of BYU’s most important offensive weapons will create more opportunities for one of Washington’s many playmakers to put points on the board.
The Huskies are 1-3 against the spread this season and are a 17-point favorite according to Oddshark, and that might not be enough. Road games against ranked teams are always ripe for rude awakening, and BYU knows they’ll be facing a tough challenge when they travel to Seattle on Saturday.
The question isn’t whether or not Washington is going to win, it’s by how much We’ve seen this offense explode when it’s clicking on all cylinders. Week 5 could be confirmation of those lofty standards.
