A Pac 12 matchup takes the stage on Friday Night Lights when the 6-3 Washington Huskies visit the Rose Bowl to meet the 7-2 UCLA Bruins at 9 PM ET, in a tremendous NCAAF week 12 clash.

Washington is on a two game winning streak after dropping three in a row.  The last win came against Colorado with Junior RB Bishop Sankey running 143 yards and 1 TDs in the victory.

“It’s going to be a hard-fought ballgame,” Washington coach Steve Sarkisian said. “That’s a good football team at UCLA. It won’t be an easy environment to play in on a Friday night.”

UCLA is also on a two game winning streak.  They beat Arizona 31-26 last week with a great performance by their defense.

“It worked, but there’s a saturation point,” head coach Jim Mora said. “Everyone is going to want to see this and they think it’s great, but what they forget is coaches are now prepared for it and they’re going to have an answer.”

These two programs haven’t met since 2010 when the Huskies won 24-7 on November. “It’ll be a good game,” said Mora, who played at Washington. “It’ll be exciting. They’re a good football team and there’s a lot at stake. It’ll be a fun environment in the Rose Bowl.”

UCLA is 2.5 points favorite over Washington on Friday; the game total is at 60.5 points. Keep in mind, Washington is 2-5 ATS in its last 7 games when playing on the road against UCLA.
