The team is just 42nd in the nation in points allowed, but that&#8217;s because it&#8217;s giving up just 23.6 points per game.<\/p>\n<p>Defending the pass is going to be the key here for Oregon. Oregon State&#8217;s rushing game is struggling, and that&#8217;s before you take into account the numerous injuries they&#8217;ve endured entering this contest.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=66501&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<h3>Oregon State<\/h3>\n<p>The Oregon State rushing game is 114th in the nation in terms of rushing yards per game. <\/p>\n<p>The team is averaging 115.5 yards per game in that category, but it&#8217;s going to be even rougher this week with only one healthy scholarship tailback practicing this week.<\/p>\n<p>Against Oregon, the strategy is keeping the Ducks&#8217; offense off the field. The Beavers don&#8217;t exactly run a quick pace, so this shouldn&#8217;t be a problem if the team can complete plays on third downs.<\/p>\n<p>That, of course, will be the catch. Oregon is going to put up points, and Oregon State needs to keep up early so it&#8217;s not pushing the pace and playing catch up late.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63739&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>Home-field advantage will be crucial in this one, as volume in the stadium will (hopefully) rattle the Heisman quarterback for Oregon.<\/p>\n<h3>NCAA Football Handicapping Trends:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>ORE are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 road games.<\/li>\n<li>Over is 18-6 in ORE last 24 games in November.<\/li>\n<li>Under is 5-2-1 in ORE last 8 road games.<\/li>\n<li>ORST are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 home games.<\/li>\n<li>Over is 10-4 in ORST last 14 games in November.<\/li>\n<li>Road team is 7-0-1 ATS in their last 8 meetings.<\/li>\n<li>Over is 11-1 in the last 12 meetings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Week 14 NCAA Football<\/h3>\n<p>Don&#8217;t expect this one to be a nail-biter like last year, but don&#8217;t be shocked if the Beavers&#8217; passing game takes avantage of a bad Ducks&#8217; pass defense.<\/p>\n<p>Oregon is just 117th in the nation in terms of passing yards allowed.<\/p>\n<h3>4* Free NCAA Betting Pick Oregon State +20<\/h3>\n<p>The Ducks should win this game. Straight up, this contest is not in question.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately for Oregon fans, an ATS win will be difficult with the spread put so high at this point in the process.<\/p>\n<p>As previously mentioned, the pass defense is going to be a key theme for Oregon. The Ducks will allow Sean Mannion to find his targets, and that will allow for points on Oregon State&#8217;s end.<\/p>\n<p>Look for this one to be an Oregon victory by double digits &#8212; just not by 20 points.<\/p>\n<h3>Check out our\u00a0<a title=\"College Football Week 14 Odds\" href=\"https:\/\/capperspicks.sportsdirectinc.com\/odds\/ncaaf.aspx\" rel=\"nofollow\">Updated College Football Week 14 Odds<\/a>.<\/h3>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63706&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Week 14:\u00a0Ducks vs Beavers Week 14 college betting action sees the No. 2 Oregon Ducks\u00a0taking on the\u00a0Oregon State Beavers.
