Oregon State at Washington State picks and predictions
Prediction
Washington State 31, Oregon State 24
Moneyline
BET WASHINGTON STATE (+125).
Washington State is 2-0 at home where it has outscored its opponent 95-43. It has yet to allow more than 25 points in a game this season and beat Wisconsin 31-22 at home as an underdog. The Cougars’ strength is with Ward through the air, and it will be the toughest test yet for the Beavers, who have held 2 opponents to single digits.
Oregon State suffered 2 of its 3 losses last season on the road, going just 3-2 away from home. This will be an amped-up environment like it hasn’t seen yet this season.
Against the spread
PASS.
I’ll take the Cougars on the moneyline with plus-money odds over their ATS value.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 58.5 (-105).
Both defenses have put on a show this season. Oregon State has allowed 33 points through 3 games and Washington State has allowed 67.
The Beavers aren’t necessarily a proven attack either. They beat San Jose State and UC Davis, scoring 42 or more points in both, but they also beat San Diego State while scoring just 26 points.
Both defenses have held their opponent to under 25 in each game, and this will be the toughest test for each offense. Expect some struggles as they adjust.
