Default Squaring Up Backing

Hi, I am trying to square up fabric for a backing (that needs to be 70 x 82). I am using 126" wide fabric and have prewashed a piece that is big enough to square down to.

My question is, if I square it up by ripping WOF and then use the selvages, will my backing be completely squared?

Thanks in advance from all you great quilters. This is my first time ripping to square up and not sure about it.
