Top 10 College Football Rivalry Week picks against the spread
5. Oregon State at Oregon (-7) Saturday 3:30 PM ET, ESPN
The Civil War takes center stage in the Pac-12 conference this week as it will have a huge impact on which team will win the North division.
As recently as last week Oregon was ranked third in the College Football Playoff rankings and controlled their own destiny for a playoff spot.
But, the Ducks haven’t been playing as well as they did early in the season when they won at Ohio State and it finally caught up with them last week in Salt Lake City.
Utah ended the Ducks playoff hopes but the Pac-12 title is still within reach. Oregon needs a win to play in the championship game, while Oregon State needs to beat Oregon and get some help from Washington.
The Beavers are going bowling and are one of the best stories in college football.
Anthony Brown hasn’t been great and neither team is particularly effective throwing the ball. This will come down to the trenches and Oregon is too good there to lose this one.
Final score: Oregon 34, Oregon State 24
