UCLA -4.5 2.2% PLAY
Boise will play the best defense they have faced all season long against UCLA. Boise with a third string QB, a first time starter going up against a defense that is not only top 30 against the run, they are top 10, and they also have a top 30 pass defense, 16th in sack %, and top 25 in turning opponents over. Boise played just 1 team in teh top 50 in run defense, and that team was Air Force a team they beat, but was a bit is always a bit off in their rankings. They went 0-3 vs. top 30 pass defenses. Boise got dominated by the PAC 12 opponent in week 1, and UCLA dominated on the road against San Diego State from the Mountain West.
Clearly the PAC 12 took huge strides this year and was a lot better going 10-1 vs. the Mountain West as I feel the MW was down. PAC 12 in the previous 2 years went 12-8 for example. Not only did the PAC 12 win they dominated outsourcing on average by 3 TDs. Boise has had some transfers, and while they played great down the stretch and won the conference they have no WR’s, and their HC got the job they were fighting for, I don’t sense there will be as much fight in Boise here. UCLA should dominate.
