Why Oregon Will Win

The Pac-12 Championship is there for the taking.

USC is already in, and Oregon can punch its ticket to Las Vegas with a win. If it loses, the door is open for Washington and Utah.

The Ducks bounced back fast from the tough loss to Washington with a gut-check 20-17 win over Utah. Bo Nix played banged up but he’s supposed to be ready to go after getting knocked around late, but it’s the defense that needs to make the difference.

Coming up with third down stops hasn’t been easy, and the pass defense has been hit too hard at times, but the takeaways have been there with two or more in three of the last four games and 13 in the last six games.

Oregon State is 7-0 when running for more than 175 yards and 1-3 when running for that many or fewer. For all of its faults and flaws, Oregon’s defense has only allowed more than 160 yards once – 186 in the win over UCLA.

However …

Why Oregon State Will Win

The Oregon State defense and overall style of play should be a problem.

A monster against the run, the Beavers only allowed more than 100 yards once in the last six games. There isn’t much of a pass rush and there’s not much of disruption happening in the backfield, but that’s by design.

The results are there. The D won’t hold Oregon to under three yards per carry like Utah did last week, but it should be able to keep Nix from taking off.

Offensively, it’s all about the balance and keeping the chains moving. The Beavers are great at controlling the clock, they should own third downs, and they’ll average over four yards per carry.

Oregon is 1-2 when allowing over five yards per pop, but …

What’s Going To Happen

Oregon State has only been able to average over five yards per carry three times, and Colorado, Arizona State, and Montana State weren’t exactly the most dangerous teams on the slate.

The rivalry aspect of this matters. Oregon State won the last time around in Corvallis and twice in the last three times at home. Underestimate this year’s team at your own peril, but …

It came up short three times – USC, Utah, Washington. Those were the three best teams on the slate, and Oregon is right there, if not better.

The Ducks will come up with two quick scoring drives in the fourth quarter to finally put it away.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Oregon vs Oregon State Game Preview


Why Oregon State Will Win

Oregon is beaten up.

Even at full strength it wouldn’t have been able to handle what was coming in  Salt Lake City against Utah, but there are a whole lot of things being pieced together.

Oregon State will know what it needs to do going into this – Washington State has to lose to Washington on Friday night – but no matter what, it’s the big rivalry date that could make the season with a second straight win in the series.

It stars with keeping the chains moving.

The Beavers have just enough offensive balance keep things moving however they need to. The offensive line has been fantastic, the running game leads the Pac-12, and there’s more than enough pass protection to get the short-range passes going.

Why Oregon Will Win

Win, get in.

Yeah, Oregon has a slew of injuries, but so does everyone else. This is still the most talented team in the Pac-12, and it should be able to get its offense going at home with the pop needed on the ground to take control early.

Oregon State might be all about the time of possession and owning the tempo, but Oregon is just as good at converting third downs. The O line should be able to take over against a Beaver defense without too much of a pass rush.

Run well and it’s a win. Cal and Colorado were able to run over the Beavers and pulled off victories, Washington State was able to throw just fine and win, and …

What’s Going To Happen

Oregon State is 1-4 on the road with the lone victory coming against USC. It’s not that the location of the field should matter that much, but Oregon will be energized after what happened last week.

The Oregon narrative continues. It loses the a November road game it can’t afford to give away, it gets it back in time to go to the Pac-12 Championship, wins, and then it’s off to win the Rose Bowl.

It starts here with a great win in a tough game. Oregon State isn’t going to make this easy.
