Oregon vs Oregon State Key Stats
In the last contest, the Beavers outscored their opponents in three of the four quarters of the game. Ben Gulbranson threw for 188 passing yards and one rushing touchdown. Damien Martinez gained 138 rushing yards on 22 attacking attempts and scored two touchdowns for the Beavers. They were simply immaculate in their defensive department and managed to hold the Sun Devils to only one touchdown for the game.
The Beavers have been better with their defense this season. They hold their opponents to 20.3 points per game for only 330.6 total yards. They are giving up only four turnovers on average per game. Martinez has proven to be a real nuisance for the opponents' defense as he dominates the game on transition plays and runs with authority on the flanks.
For the Ducks, Bo Nix has consistently produced amazing performances, accumulating at least 280 throwing yards in four of his previous five contests. The senior quarterback has achieved at least 250 yards eight times while playing against teams with powerful defenses. Nix has thrown for 3062 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, and just six interceptions.
The Ducks have a strong group of running backs, led by Bucky Irving. The sophomore running back has managed to-exceed the 100 yard mark in two of his previous three outings and now has 851 yards to Noah Whittington's 688. 139 receiving yards were racked up by Troy Franklin in the most recent Washington defeat. The junior wide receiver has amassed 789 receiving yards
Oregon vs Oregon State Betting Prediction
While the Beavers' offense is effective, the Ducks can still manage it. Against the USC Trojans, Utah Utes, and Washington Huskies, the Beavers only managed to score 14, 16, and 21 points, respectively.
The Beavers' offense-to-defense scoring ratio, which shows poor scoring prowess against opponents with good defenses, is all they need to prove with their lackluster offensive performance. The Beavers' running game is their main strength, as Oregon ranks 21st in rush defense. This game should see the Ducks cover the spread.
Pick: Ducks -2.5 (-115)
