Oregon at Oregon State Best bets: Odds, predictions, recent stats, names to know, and trends for September 14

The Oregon Ducks and the Oregon State Beavers renew their rivalry known as the Civil War Saturday afternoon.

Trent Bray’s tenure as the new Oregon State football coach has been smooth, winning their Week 1 game against Idaho State 38-15 and then shutting out the San Diego State Aztecs 21-0 in Week 2.

For Dan Lanning and the Ducks, smooth is not the word to describe the start of their season. In Week 1, they were in a dogfight against FCS University of Idaho and had to overcome a half-team deficit against Boise State last weekend.

The Ducks currently have a 68-49-10 advantage in the series, but over the last four years, each team has won twice. Each school protecting their home turf in each of the four.

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) is leaning on laying the 16.5 with Oregon…

“It’s hard to have faith in anything Oregon football at the moment. They are 0-2 ATS in their first two games of the season, and had it not been for the second-half heroics against Boise State, they could quite possibly be 1-1 on the season.

However, there is a massive difference between defending Heisman hopeful Ashton Jeanty for quarters and trying to stop Jam Griffin.

The biggest issue I have with Oregon State is the amount of turnover they had in the offseason. Their head coach is gone, and he took his coaching staff. They lost their best wide receiver, Silas Bolden. They lost lead back Damien Martinez, and to make matters worse, they lost just about everyone from the offensive line.

If Oregon can pressure Idaho transfer QB Gevani McCoy, this one could get ugly early. McCoy is not the kind of quarterback to drive the ball down the field and lead his team in a comeback.

The Ducks are bound to put it together. With all their talent on the field, they will likely do it sooner rather than later.

The problem for me is, do you want to test more than a two-touchdown favorite in Oregon in Corvallis? This is a place that is always difficult to play. I lean toward staying off the game, but Oregon should roll the Beavers.”

Names to Know for Oregon and Oregon State

○ Ducks: QB Dillon Gabriel – Gabriel started the season as the odds-on favorite to win the Heisman this season. After two lack-luster performances and a QBR of 53.5 (66th), he’s found himself on the outside looking in. The success of Oregon largely depends on the season Gabriel has.

○ Beavers: RB Jam Griffin – Griffin has run for 249 yards and 3 TDs on 38 carries. Griffin is the lead back after the departure of the bell-cow back Martinez
