The Nicholls Colonels haven’t beaten anybody worth mentioning, and every team they’ve played against a power conference has destroyed them. The Oregon State Beavers are falling apart already this season, but they haven’t had the easiest schedule to be fair, and their offense is more talented than it’s shown up to this point. If Oregon State can’t win this game and cover the small number, something is wrong. I’ll give the Beavers one more chance.
