Oregon State comes into this matchup on a three game winning streak and those wins are by margins of 30, 26, and 35 points. The Beavers have a great passing attack this season and the defense has been solid. San Diego State snapped their losing streak with a comeback win over Texas State last week, but their offense struggles to throw the ball. The Aztecs are also not very good defensively, as they have allowed 28+ points in three of their last four games. Take Oregon State to cover at home.
