The Oregon Ducks (2-1) travel to Pullman to play the Washington State Cougars (3-0) Saturday at 4 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Oregon vs. Washington State odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
Oregon comes into this game coming off a 41-20 victory over BYU in a game not as close as the final score.
Washington State beat Colorado State 38-7, an impressive win a week after a road win against the Wisconsin Badgers. The Cougars were in a prime letdown spot, yet they showed they were up to the task. QB Cameron Ward and the air raid attack of Washington State will make this a difficult game for the favored Ducks.

Oregon at Washington State picks and predictions
Prediction
Oregon 31 Washington State 28
Money line
NO PLAY.
The line is over -200 which makes it not worth a play in either direction. If you want to sprinkle a little on a live dog, Washington State could be an upset candidate over Oregon.
Against the spread
PLAY WASHINGTON STATE +6.5 (-103).
Teams struggle in Pullman. No matter how good or bad the team, they always struggle when going to eastern Washington to play the Cougars. This will be another battle and -6.5 is too large of a gap to lay here.
Washington State may not win, but they will keep it close. This is my favorite play for this game.
Over/Under
This one tends to lean toward UNDER 57.5 (-110).
Washington State can score with the air raid offense. But this far into the season, it has not scored more than 38. This came against a bad Colorado State team.
Against Oregon LBs Justin Flowe and Noah Sewell, it will be difficult for this to be the week they get humming.
Oregon put up 41 on BYU at home last week. But with the Cougars showing against Wisconsin their ability to slow down the game and run the ball against better teams, this game feels like an under.
