College Football Odds
Washington -8.5
Total: 55.5 points
Washington looks like they are going to be the fourth team into the College Football Playoffs this season, but they have all the pressure in the world on them with this game here. If the Huskies win, they should be making their way into the playoff given they are ranked fourth this week. But if they lose to Colorado tonight the celebration is all over for the Huskies.
This game is being played in Santa Clara, California, home of the San Francisco 49ers in a placed called Levi Stadium. There's an underlying factor here that many might be overlooking when it comes to the overall stadium conditions and Washington. The Huskies have played 12 games this season and each of them has been played on field turf, which is nowhere to be found at Levi Stadium, which is all natural grass. That might not have any impact at all, but there's a chance it could.
For what it's worth, Colorado plays on natural grass inside Folsom Field.
Colorado is certainly a surprise and QB Sefo Liufau is an excellent guy with the ball in his hands. He can make plays with his arms and feet and tailback Phillip Lindsay is awesome coming out of the backfield.
Washington has a pair of awesome sophomores on offense in Jake Browning (3,162 yards, 40 TDs, 7 INTs) and Myles Gaskin (1,180 yards, 10 TDs). Colorado's defense is a strong one and they have the best pass defense in the Pac 12, which should make an impact tonight.
