Oklahoma State at Oregon picks and predictions
Prediction
Oregon 48, Oklahoma State 17
Moneyline
PASS.
There is no value on the Ducks (-10000) to win at home on Saturday.
Against the spread
LEAN OREGON -27.5 (-110).
This is a large spread for the Ducks to cover, but they provided plenty of reason to back them in their first game, despite it being against a worse opponent. They moved the ball at will with more than 500 yards of total offense and 8 TDs. They showed an ability to move various players into a variety of roles, evidenced by 12 different players having at least 1 carry on the ground and 10 different players having at least 1 reception. Expect the Ducks to create chaos for the Cowboys Saturday.

Over/Under
BET OVER 55.5 (-110).
The Ducks will be forced to carry a majority of this total, especially if they are going to cover the spread. They hit the Over of 56.5 last week on their own while Montana State was still able to score 13 points.
The Cowboys looked slightly off kilter last week against UT Martin, but they still managed 359 yards of offense pointing toward their ability to find the end zone. The Cowboys have what it takes to carry enough of the load in this matchup to hit the Over.
