You can't try to spread a defense out in the rain !!! UCLA is on the ground against Stanford it's like running against the trees :) UCLA can't play with this team in good weather in their own backyard 11/24/12 - STAN 35 vs. UCLA 17 Recent Meetings: 11/24/12 - STAN 35 vs. UCLA 17 10/01/11 - UCLA 19 vs. STAN 45 09/11/10 - STAN 35 vs. UCLA 0 Stanford has the #1 rush defense in the country, so i don't expect UCLA to do any better running the ball than they did last week. Stanford defense gives up just under 17 points a game, which is what UCLA got last week. They'll be lucky to get that many now since Stanford has seen their offense up close and personal. Cheers GL .

Re: NCAAF Week 14 Northern Illinois -9.5 @ 2.16 pinnacle Both teams are very good at running the ball but where Northern Illinois have the edge is that they can also pass the ball while Kent State does not do that all that well. Also NI are much better defending the pass than Kent State while the two run defences are similar. Stanford -10.5 @ 2.22 pinnacle These two teams faced off last week as Stanford demolished them last week, winning 35-17 at UCLA, and now a week later, now with Stanford with the home game, hard to see the result changing here. Stanford's very good rush defence will negate the UCLA running game which means they will have to throw the ball more, and they are good at it, and you would assume they can exploit this pass defence that allows 257 passing yards per game, but with the weather expected to be wet and windy, then running the ball, rather than throwing it, is the way to play the game here. Stanford run the ball quite well, and UCLA do not have the same defence as Stanford to stop the run. Record: 87-100 (-4.24)
