The California Golden Bears wrap up the 2017 regular season as underdogs yet again. Depending on where you look, Cal is 7 to 7.5 point underdogs to the UCLA Bruins.
Even with UCLA firing their head coach, this line makes plenty of sense. After the North Carolina game, Cal has been a dramatically worse team on the road this season than they have been at home (Big Game is not a true road game as that stadium is pretty much 40% Cal fans). Cal has been blown out by Washington, run over by Oregon, and disappointed in Colorado.
