Stanford at Arizona

The Stanford program is back on its feet. The Cardinal won just one game four seasons ago. They built to four wins three seasons ago, and are coming off of their five win season last year Already in 2009, they own a 4-2 record in their quest to become Bowl eligible. Arizona is off a tough loss on the road at Washington and suddenly what was considered a top defense has surrendered 68 points and over 900 yards the last two weeks. It has led to them covering just one game in their five this season. Stanford QB Andrew Luck has already thrown for 1,166 yards at 8.8 yards per attempt, and has run for 170 more at 5.7 yards a carry. He forms a tough tandem with featured back Toby Gerhart who has 746 yards at 5.3 a pop. It gives the Cardinal a balanced offense - something the Wildcats have had trouble with recently. Stanford was pointspread dead, but recently has the weapons to come back from an ATS loss having covered four straight after suffering one ATS and are still under the radar covering seven of their last ten overall. The Wildcats are a not-so-wild 11-32 in their last 43 posted as a chalk. In what looks like a FG game either way, the points loom big here.
