Betting Trends for vs
The Stanford Cardinal have not looked the traditional program we have grown to know as they have found little success on the offensive side of the ball. The Cardinal lost a ton of talent from last year’s team to the NFL, and that has shown early on in the season as they have only won 1 game. The Oregon State Beavers have been solid on the offensive side of the ball as Jake Luton has shown improvement every season, and they also have one of the best RBs in the nation with Jemar Jefferson. The Beavers have been questionable on the defensive side of the ball, but Stanford has shown me little improvement on offense to lead me to believe they will be successful on the road. Final Score Prediction, Oregon State Beavers win and cover ATS 31-27.
