Pick
I’m leaning towards Oregon State here. Not a game I’m necessarily rushing to bet, but I think there could be value with the points here. Granted, I’ve seen Oregon State struggle plenty offensively this season, but the thing here is that the Sun Devils at times have had issues of their own, and despite the Sun Devils winning a lot of the recent meetings, Oregon State’s actually covered in five of the last six meetings between the two. I just think this is a case of too many points so give me Oregon State here.
