The Greatest Setting in College Football is on Montlake. But the most grand? That’s in Pasadena, with a name equally as special: the Rose Bowl.  As Yogi Roth said during the NBC broadcast of Washington’s 48-14 thrashing of UCLA, not many would be opposed to the Rose Bowl hosting the National Championship Game every season.

Big 10 Pick 6: Coming up Roses

It was a frustrating 2-4 week ATS for me in Week 12. Both Illinois and USC won but failed to cover by the skin of their teeth. The Huskies did just the opposite. Back at Husky Stadium, they blew away Purdue by a comfortable margin beyond the spread. Will they be able to keep it […]

With Hannes Steinbach and a host of other Huskies out, Tuesday night’s game against Southern presented a test of the Huskies’ depth.
