The Oregon State Beavers (6-1, 3-1 Pac-12) and Arizona Wildcats (4-3, 2-2) meet Saturday at Arizona Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Oregon State vs. Arizona odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
The Beavers have managed 3 straight wins and covers since falling 38-35 at Washington State, the team’s only blemish to date. Oregon State is good for 26 or more points this season, with the only exception coming in a 21-7 victory at home against Utah. The Over has cashed in 3 of the past 4 outings.
The Wildcats spanked Washington State last time out on Oct. 14, so Arizona has had 2 weeks to prepare for Oregon State. Overall, the Wildcats have cashed in 6 of the past 7 games this season. The Under is 6-1 for Arizona, too.
Arizona QB Jayden de Laura (calf) is listed as questionable, as is RB Michael Wiley (ankle). If de Laura cannot go, it will be QB Noah Fifita making yet another start.
Oregon State is No. 12 in the US LBM Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

Oregon State at Arizona picks and predictions
Prediction
Oregon State 31, Arizona 24
Moneyline
OREGON STATE (-165) is worth a look as a moderate favorite if you don’t want to mess around with the points and would simply like to declare a winner.
It’s not going to be easy, as Arizona (+140) is brimming with confidence after pounding Washington State in its most recent showing.
Against the spread
OREGON STATE -3 (-110) is a decent play, having covered 3 straight, and 5 of 7 games overall. It’s also 2-1 ATS in 3 games on the road, while going 3-1 ATS in 4 games as a single-digit favorite.
However, Arizona +3 (-110) is 4-0 ATS in 4 games as an underdog, including covers as a ‘dog in each of the past 3 contests overall.
Over/Under
UNDER 56.5 (-110) is the best play on the board.
The Under has cashed in 6 of the past 7 games overall for Arizona, while going a perfect 3-0 in 3 games at home. The most recent game at Arizona Stadium was a 31-24 loss to Washington, cashing the Under (65) rather comfortably.
For Oregon State, the Over has cashed in 3 of the past 4 games, so there is some risk. But Arizona is a strong defensive team, similar to Utah, a team the Beavers went low against.
