Preview
Two undefeated teams will clash in Seattle on Friday night, and history certainly favors Stanford, as the Cardinal have won seven of their last eight versus the Huskies. Washington was an underdog in all eight of those games, but the Huskies will be playing the role of favorite this time around. According to Covers.com Consensus Analysis, the public is backing the defending conference champions, with 61 percent of bettors backing Stanford. Both teams looked vulnerable last week, as Stanford rallied late to come from behind at UCLA, while Washington barely escaped with a win at Arizona. Christian McCaffrey had 300 all purpose yards in Stanford’s 31-14 home win over Washington last year, and containing the Heisman candidate will be crucial if the Huskies hope to turn the tables on Stanford. Whoever wins this game will emerge as the clear favorite to win the PAC12.
