Oregon vs Washington Prediction

Oregon has not been playing well in their recent games as they have lost 3 of their last 4 games coming into this one. They have had a very tough schedule in that span though playing some very hot teams, including 3 different ranked teams. Their last 2 losses were also within 5 points in each game and they are on the road here where they are 5-3 this season. They are going up against a Washington team that is 9-6 at home this season but they have also not been playing well recently. They have lost 5 of their last 6 games but they have had a very weak schedule in that span. Oregon is the better team and even though they have been losing more games recently, they have been losing in close games to very good teams while Washington is losing by a lot to teams that are not very good. Oregon should get the win in this game but it will likely be by single digits here on the road for them.
