The only two teams capable of winning
the Pac-10, the Oregon State Beavers and
the Oregon Ducks, face off this Thursday
at Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Oregon.
The Ducks have lost only twice this
season, to the Stanford Cardinal and the
Boise State Broncos. They are fresh off
of a fantastic 44 to 41 overtime victory
over the Arizona Wildcats, and should be
geared up to get into the Rose Bowl.
Their top rivals, the Oregon State
Beavers, will have something to say
about that.
Oregon vs. Oregon State is one of the
little known rivalries in college
football. Dubbed the Civil War, the game
between Oregon and Oregon State is the
7th oldest rivalry game in college
football. It was first played in 1894.
The Ducks lead in the series overall
56-46-10 but in Eugene, surprisingly,
things have been very close, Oregon is
up on Oregon State 25-23-3. That should
really tell how close these two teams
have been in this game.
Let’s take a look at the

- The key in figuring out the best
bet in this game is to understand
which team will be on this Thursday.
Oregon hasn’t put up less than 40
points in 5 straight games. The Beavers
have put up over 40 points in two
straight games.
When it comes to the stop game,
neither Oregon nor Oregon State is all
that great. Oregon’s defense is ranked
28th in college football and gives up,
on average, 23 points a game. When
facing a team that doesn’t put up a lot
of points, the Ducks do okay, keeping
UCLA to 10 and Washington State to 6 in
their games against those teams this
year, but the Ducks also gave up 51
points to Stanford and 41 points to
Arizona.
Oregon State, overall, has done much
better defensively than Oregon lately
allowing 19 to UCLA, 14 to California,
21 to Washington and 10 to Washington
State. What it shows is that the Beavers
are capable of playing a defensive, well
as defensive as possible, game if they
need to.
