Wanna see a scoreboard light up? Love offense? Watch this game if you answered yes to either of those questions. Both of there defenses will be overmatched by the opposing offenses in this game, which will lead to a boatload of points here. The total is set at 74 but that still isn't high enough. Maurice Drew is the best TB in the land not named Bush, and he’ll show it here. Brent Baesenez is quite capable for the Wildcats as well, and frosh TB Tyrell Sutton may be a superstar down the road. UCLA is 26-7 OVER vs. good offensive teams that score 31 or more points/game since 1992 and they are 9-2 OVER this season. The Wildcats rank eighth in the country in offense while the Bruins rank seventh in scoring offense. The defenses, on the other hand, are rather brutal. UCLA ranks 111th in total defense while the Wildcats are dead last. Northwestern played a killer schedule and that will help them here. Like them getting the field goal. One star on Northwestern and three stars on the OVER.
