Oregon State is entering this game with a 3-2 record overall to start their college football season and they will be playing their 3rd home game of the season as they are 1-1 in their home games this year.

The current betting odds have Oregon State listed as a 3.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Oregon State hasn't looked great over their last 3 games but they finally snapped their losing streak with a 1 point win in Stanford last week. They have been very good in their home games though and are riding a long win streak there going back to last season. Wazzu hasn't been great in their games lately either but they have also been a team that has struggled on the road this year and against the stronger teams in their conference. Oregon State has a really good defense that will make WSU struggle to score all night and the Oregon State offense has been great at home this year putting up a lot of points there. They will be able to pull away in this game at home and their defense will hold the lead for them as they extend it throughout the game. The best way to place a bet here is on Oregon State to cover the spread in this game.
