The current betting odds have Washington State listed as a 4 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. WSU hasn't been having a great year but they just became bowl eligible with their win last week and have started to get on a roll now winning 2 games in a row. They haven't been terrible on the road this year at 2-2 in road games and they are getting Arizona off a big win here. Arizona went on the road last week and pulled off a huge upset over a ranked UCLA team but they really haven't been that great this year. They still have a chance to become bowl eligible if they win their last 2 games of the season but Washington State knows they can end their chances here with a win and Arizona is going to be due for a letdown here after their biggest win of the season last week. Arizona has made some big improvements this season but they still need more time to be a really good team while Washington State has gone toe-to-toe with a few good teams this year and can easily win this game on the road. The best way to place a bet here is on Washington State to cover the spread in this game.
