Washington is entering this game with a 1-0 record overall and they have a 0-0 record in their conference games too.  They are 1-0 in their home games, 0-0 in their road games, and they are also 0-0 in their neutral site games this season, but they will be at home for this game. They won their last game against BSU 56-19. Michael Penix Jr. was the starting QB and he completed 29/40 passes for 450 passing yards, 5 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions. Will Nixon led the team in rushing yards with 48. Rome Odunze led the receivers with 132 receiving yards on 7 receptions and 1 TD. Edefuan Ulofoshio led the defense in that game with 5 solo tackles and 1 assisted tackle while Edefuan Ulofoshio led the defense in sacks with 1. Carson Bruener and Kamren Fabiculanan each came away with 1 interception for them in that game.

The current betting odds have Washington listed as a 34.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Washington got off to a slow start in their 1st game of the season but they eventually got rolling against a really good Boise State team, putting them in the dust in the 2nd half. Washington had a really good offense last season with a really strong home advantage and now they have their eyes set on a National Championship in this last year of the Pac-12. Tulsa also looked good in their 1st game but they were playing at home and were against a team from the FCS. Now they go on the road to face one of the best teams in the country and Tulsa doesn't have a great team either despite rolling in their season opener. The talent discrepancy is far too large for Tulsa to overcome in this game and this will be just another game where Washington rolls over an opponent at home. The best way to place a bet here is on Washington to cover the spread in this game.
