Oregon/Oregon St questions

**dark star** · 11-30-09, 09:42 AM

Oregon St. looks like their on a mission this year.They seem to be a very well rounded & well coached team that plays their best ball as the season progresses.

Oregon is a solid team.Their dee is so talented & fast its scary(especially the db's)If these guys force a few turnovers they will win by 17 or so.

I'm thinking Oregon St. slows the game a little & makes it a toss-up.

**BigdaddyQH** · 11-30-09, 12:12 PM

This is a huge Rivalry game. Oregon State has revenge on it's mind, because Oregon knocked them out of last years Rose Bowl at home. Now, they would like to return the favor in Eugene, and get the Rose Bowl bid as a bonus. Like many games so far this month, this game can go either way. This is a definate pass for me.

**Joe_Shabadoo** · 12-01-09, 09:48 PM

Remember, concerning '08's matchup, that 'Quizz didn't play, so that really hamstrung what OSU could do.

If I'm not mistaken I think Lyle Moevao was under center as well.....

**LLXC** · 12-01-09, 10:41 PM

+10 is way too many points IMO.

**rm18** · 12-02-09, 04:22 AM

Canfield was health Moevao was the starter, but yes a different team. Oregon is favored by too much here I believe the teams are about even on a neutral field

**tommyminh** · 12-02-09, 09:56 AM

still one more day to think about it

**garlic toast** · 12-02-09, 09:59 AM

oregon will wipe the floor with OSU

**jillmark** · 12-02-09, 10:06 AM

I can see this two ways. If Oregon is good I think this game goes over and they kill them.
If Oregon State covers, they try and kill the clock and the game goes under.

Probably does not help anybody, but I might parlay both.

**BigdaddyQH** · 12-02-09, 10:56 AM

Look at the records of these two teams. Pregpn States last 4 games have been against a 6-6 UCLA team at home, a Cal team that lost their best player, and the two Washington teams. Oregon's last 4 games have been against the Pac 10 contenders USC, Stanford and Arizona, plus Arizona State. The line has gone up for a reason. The game is still a pass, but I sure would not be considering an Oregon State ML wager.

**HittingGuru** · 12-02-09, 12:22 PM

I think Oregon is a much better team than O State and will cover the 10 point spread - this is why. When playing at home and when motivated, Oregon kicks ass (look at USC and California results) and went undefeated. Oregon State passes the hell out of the ball, but they could only score 18 points AT HOME vs. Cincinnati - Oregon's pass D is far superior than Cincys. As BigDaddy points out, O State hasn't played a great team in over a month. Oregon is a great team with only 2 losses (Boise St and Stanford, both on the road). I think the public is jumping all over O State and this forum will be flooded with "O State sucks" during that game tomorrow night. Oregon wins comfortably.

**BigdaddyQH** · 12-02-09, 02:36 PM

I hope you are right, because it really is tough getting excited about an Oregon State-Ohio State match up in the Rose Bowl. No one wants a 3 loss team in the Rose Bowl. Another thought. Oreon State has played two teams in the BCS top 18 and lost to both of them (USC and Cincinnati at home). They defeated a Cal team that lost their star player early in the game. Oregon defeated both USC and Cal when they were healthy.

You are convincing me to Oregon -10. convince me more!

Little LaMichael James (5'9 180) who has 1,300 as a freshman while averaging 6.5 yards per carry is the closest thing we've seen to Barry Sanders since Sanders retired.James is a true talent and is sure to be a Heisman candidate if he stays healthy next season. He and Masoli will run up and down the field on Oregon State all night long. Will they cover 10? They definately could. They have the firepower and palying at home is just a bonus.

They have passed just a little more than they run.

Cincy game was at start of season - Oregon St usually finishes strong (see previous years).

This is the Civil War.

**Crispybear** · 12-02-09, 11:46 PM

It's one of those rivalry games that makes you think twice about giving 10 points, especially this year. Mike Riley us a great coach and Ore ST is a notorious 2nd half team. Unlike last year, the Beavers will have both Rodgers healthy and ready to go. Prior to last year, Ore ST had won the two previous Civil Wars.

**RayzHELL** · 12-02-09, 11:53 PM

Oregon is the stronger team. Oregon State may want revenge---but will have to wait.

**padre** · 12-03-09, 12:00 AM

Oregon State runs the ball well. Oregon doesn't have the greatest run D in the world, so I think Oregon State will run early and often to keep Masoli and James off the field. Oregon State will be my play

**masr** · 12-03-09, 12:56 AM

Like the Beavers +10 pts

**madworld** · 12-03-09, 08:39 AM

I like the over here, but if I was to take a side it would be with the ducks.

**pdx107** · 12-03-09, 08:52 AM

Beavers +10 and the over

**jdhender** · 12-03-09, 09:13 AM

I live in the northeast, am not overly familiar with the weather over there but know it can be volatile - Does this have any sort of impact on the game tonight ? I'm primarily interested in the point total.

**maseda17** · 12-03-09, 09:21 AM

Eugene will be in the mid to upper 30s, no wind, no rain. OVER!

**jdhender** · 12-03-09, 09:50 AM

all i needed to here, over, big

**HittingGuru** · 12-03-09, 10:30 AM

I may be all alone in that I think this game will play under. Yes, I know both teams can score, but I look at the fact that Cincy only put up 28 points vs. Oregon State, which tells me their D is pretty damn good. Furthermore, for O St to have a chance to win and to keep within the spread (which most people think will happen), they will have to keep Oregon off the field and work the clock. A shoot-out won't favor O St and I think they know that. I can only say bet on Arkansas St -5.5 points vs. Western KY and sit back and watch the Oregon-Oregon St. game with no worres. If you must bet on the over/under, I wish you luck!

Do you always post wagers AFTER the games are over. Nice try, but this does not work. Net time try posting BEFORE the games are played. And save your "I didn't have time" excuse. We do not want to hear it. In case you didn't know it, there is a timeline posted when you post. You also posted two games as winners, but never edited your posts, meaning that you must have known the results of the games before you posted. In some sites, what you did is automatic banishment. Net time, try being honest.

**AlwaysDrawing** · 12-03-09, 11:53 AM

I'd definitely take the over in this game, but I think you might want to be careful underestimating Oregon State. Not only is this the civil war, but Oregon State wants to win the Pac-10, which they will with a victory on Saturday. IMO, 10 points is too many for Oregon to give, but I'll only be taking OSU at +10.5.

I think there is wayyy more value in the over 62 (!) than there is in the line.

**porterkid69** · 12-03-09, 12:08 PM

At +315 at BM the Beavers are worth a shot on the ML.

**HittingGuru** · 12-03-09, 12:47 PM

The line on The Greek dropped to Oregon -9.5. I think it's a great bet. Appears the public money is on O St - you know what that means - bet The Ducks!!! I just put $55 on Oregon too - saving my big bets for Saturday.

Just took the Ducks -9.5. I think their a much higher caliber team and get steam rollin at home..they've burned me twice this year though so we'll see..

Cal has actually been playing better without Javhid Best (wins over Arizona and Stanford). Plus that game was at Cal and OSU killed them. If we want to start comparing schedules we can say that Oregon got whooped by Stanford and OSU beat Stanford by 10. OSU played SC and Cal on the road. Oregon played them both at home. We can go around in circles comparing schedules all day long. It doesn't prove much of anything. Both teams are solid. Should be a great game. Can't wait to watch it

This is going to be a killer game. Ive been a OSU fan forever. This year ive been watching the ducks quite closely aswell as going to a game of theirs (Utah) That stadium is just wicked, there is nothing else that describes it. Watching all of their home games, its scary. Im honestly not sure where to put my money on this game. If this game was played on a neutral field, i would put it at close to a pick 'em, problem is, its at autzen. (big reasoning behind that statement is because Oregons D crumbles on the road).

Third time's the charm! I'm with you at -9.5 tonight.

**ringemup** · 12-03-09, 05:28 PM

theres a couple of differences 4rom last yrs game where oregon put the hammer down on oregon st. n embarrassed them in front of their fans. the rodgers duo was missing n they r the staple to oregon sts attack offensively. now both teams come in rolling with a bit of mojo in their step. that being said oregon is playing extremely well at home this yr n do deserve sum respect here as the favorite. on the flip side oregon st comes into this one firing on all cylinders on both sides of the ball. they still have a bitter taste in their mouth 4rom the beating they took las yr n look for them to come up with an impressive effort 2nite. ull prob see a couple wrinkles in oregon sts defense considering theyve scoured over the tapes of las yrs bashing n took it apart to make adjustments. with an improved canfield at QB n an oregon D that showed vulnerability in its last game look for the beavers to methodically take apart oregons D with the full disposal of weapons they have this yr. if the stakes were not so high, recommending a play on O. St. would prob. not be in the cards but with the way it is n the winner going to the BCS, its goin to be an all-out war. with the revenge factor n an oregon st team that typically finishes strong, i see them turning the tables on the ducks 2nite n surprising the home team here with a strong showing. Edge - Oregon st. +9.5 Im laying a possible 2 dimes on them miself 2nite. GL
