Randy’s Pick
The jury is still out on both teams, as neither side has been tested yet. With that said, Washington has a lot of playmakers and guys who can fill it up offensively, and they’re off to a fast start despite the lack of true competition. The Nevada Wolf Pack are an experienced side and shouldn’t be intimated being on the road against a good team. Still, I believe the Washington Huskies have more offensive depth and the home crowd doesn’t hurt them here. I’ll lay the small chalk with the home team.
