Their defense was dominant in a 21-7 win over Utah two weeks ago, and their offense showed off in a 52-40 win over California last week.
Junior quarterback DJ Uiagalelei threw five touchdown passes in the win over the Golden Bears, with Jack Velling catching three of them. Uiagalelei has racked up 1,307 passing yards and 13 touchdowns this season while rushing for 131 yards and five more scores. The Beavers have been one of the best teams in the country to wager on since last season, covering the spread in 11 of their last 13 games.
Why UCLA can cover

The Bruins have also covered the spread in 10 of the last 13 matchups, including six straight at Oregon State.
