Washington’s defense as a whole has combined for 25 sacks and 6 interceptions so far this season.

Oregon State is 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games overall and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games against a team with a winning record while the over is 17-5 in their last 22 road games against a team with a winning home record. Washington is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall and 10-26 ATS in their last 36 conference games while the over is 7-0 in their last 7 home games.

I get the case to be made across the board in this game, but I’m looking at the over in this game. Washington far and away plays their better foorball at home, scoring 38+ in all of their home games this season, while Oregon State has had a tendency to match the play style of their opponents and I think this could end up being a 38-31 type of game, so I’m looking at the over here.
