Pac-12 picks ATS: UW a slight favorite Friday night at UCLA

UW is a slight favorite at UCLA in the first Friday night game of Pac-12 conference play. The stadium could be no more than half filled.

The Huskies played a night game last Saturday and have a condensed week of preparation before their first trip to Southern California in four years. The Hotline plowed through the past five seasons of Friday night results both on the scoreboard and against the spread.

There were 24 Friday games over the last five years. Home teams won 12 of 14 Friday matches. The visiting team had played a road game the previous weekend. In 2019 and especially 2021, the conference office was mindful of the visitor’s schedule and avoided the double of a Saturday road match followed by a Friday roadgame.
