NCAA Football Betting Lines: Washington a Live ‘Dog Versus Oregon
The Oregon Ducks are 10-point favorites over the Washington Huskies in the college football spread for the Pac-12 Championship Game on Friday. The over-under is set at 66 points for the West Coast rivalry showdown.
Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders, once again plays host to the Pac-12 title game. The Huskies find themselves as massive underdogs despite defeating the Ducks earlier this season.

Part of the reason Oregon is a big favorite is the Ducks have left no doubt with convincing weekly victories since losing to Washington. Following the 36-33 loss to the Huskies on October 14, the closest Ducks’ win has been nine points over USC.
Michael Penix Jr. was really sitting on the sideline, down to Oregon, freestyling, just waiting for the ball 😂
Gets the ball. Takes the Washington Huskies down for a touchdown.

Outside of the Trojans, Oregon’s five additional wins since losing to Washington have been by 14 or more points. Meanwhile, the Huskies are squeaking out games with Washington’s last three games being decided by a touchdown or less.
Here is a look at my college football picks for Washington and Oregon.
Revisiting Washington’s Thrilling Win Over Oregon
The last time these teams played this Northwest rivalry matchup gave us an instant classic. The Huskies were victorious, but it felt like it would be an even split if the teams played the contest 10 times.
Michael Penix Jr. threw for 302 yards, 4 touchdowns and an interception against the Ducks. Bo Nix had 337 yards and 2 touchdowns. Neither defense proved to have much of an answer for two explosive offenses.
OHHH MYYY 😳

Pac-12 Championship Pick: Washington Covers Against Oregon
I haven’t found anyone who is backing the Huskies in this matchup. There is logic with Oregon who is red-hot, but for some reason Washington’s wins do not seem to count the same as other contenders in the court of public opinion.
Michael Penix Jr. has led one of the country’s most prolific offenses, becoming the first #Pac12FB team in the Pac-12 era to go undefeated in conference play. 💪

This is a rivalry matchup, and Washington has already proven capable of defeating Oregon once. It makes sense that the Ducks are favored in the Las Vegas odds given their recent stretch.
Search X and you will find plenty of conspiracy theories about Penix dealing with an injury. The Huskies are going to find it challenging to beat their rivals two times in one season, especially with how close the first game was in October.
Yet, this is too many points with a potential College Football Playoff spot on the line. Even if Penix is banged up with a mysterious injury, Washington has a plethora of offensive weapons for this to be a blowout.
Bet online for Washington to cover the spread. If you are bold, the Huskies moneyline has great value at +300, but it is hard for me to see Washington sweeping the Ducks.
College Football Pick: Huskies +10
