Washington vs Oregon Picks and Prediction – 12/1/2024

Bitter rivals will square off on Saturday afternoon, when the Washington Huskies travel to Autzen Stadium to take on the Oregon Ducks. Make sure you are ready for all the football action with our college football picks. The Huskies (6-5) were forced to replace a ton of talent from last season’s team that reached the National Championship game and rank 39th nationally in passing offense (257 ypg). Last time out, Washington secured bowl eligibility with a 31-19 home victory versus UCLA. 

Jonah Coleman (95 rush yds) started the scoring for Washington with a 15-yard touchdown run and sealed the win with a late fourth quarter score. Keleki Latu caught an eight-yard touchdown pass from Will Rogers for the Huskies, who outgained the Bruins on the ground by a 123-52 margin. 

The Oregon Ducks have reeled off 11 straight victories and have clinched a spot in the Big Ten Conference Championship Game. The top-ranked Ducks lead the Big Ten in total offense and are scoring 33.9 points per game. In their last game, Atticus Sappington nailed a 24-yard field goal with less than three minutes remaining to lift Oregon to a 16-13 road victory against Wisconsin. 

Oregon trailed by seven points entering the fourth quarter, but tied the score on an 11-yard Jordan James touchdown run. James finished with a game-high 121 rushing yards on 25 carries. Evan Stewart contributed 92 receiving yards on ten receptions for the Ducks.

Washington defeated Oregon by a field goal twice last season on their way to the National Championship Game. A lot of the key participants from those battles are gone, but the Ducks have not forgotten. Look for Oregon to win at home in a game that stays under the total. Final Score Prediction, Oregon Ducks win 31-13.
