Oregon vs. Stanford (NCAAF) - Nov 12, 2011 8:00 PM ESTPlay: Point Spread: 3.0/-105 Oregon Pick Title: FREE PLAYFREE PLAY 1 Unit on Oregon Ducks +3 Stanford has only played one high-caliber opponent (USC) this season, and it was extremely lucky to escape with a victory. I don't think it will be as fortunate Saturday night as it plays host to an Oregon team that won last year's meeting by 21 points. In fact, the Ducks have won 8 of the last 9 in this series. Oregon's only loss this season came to No. 1 ranked LSU. The Ducks actually outgained the Tigers 335-273 in that game but were done in by 4 turnovers. They have only committed a total of 6 turnovers since that contest and shouldn't be turnover prone against a Stanford defense that hasn't been very opportunistic. USC's offense gave the Cardinal all it wanted and more, racking up 432 yards. So it will no doubt be tested by an Oregon offense that ranks 5th in scoring with 46 ppg and 7th in total offense with 510.7 yards per game. Oregon rushed for 388 yards in last year's win over Stanford, and I'm expecting another big day on the ground from the nation's 5th-ranked rushing attack (298.4 ypg) Statistically, Stanford has done a good job against the run, but keep in mind that it hasn't faced anyone who can run it like Oregon. The Ducks are 14-5 ATS in their last 19 games as an underdog of 3.0 points or less. Stanford takes a big step up in competition here and likely walks away with a blemish. Take the points.
