Oregon vs Oklahoma State Prediction
The current betting odds have Oregon listed as a 22.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Oregon has a 1-0 record overall this season and they beat a really good opponent in their season opener. They are coming off a 34-27 win over Boise State and they looked terrible in the 1st half as they were trailing for a lot of that game, but they looked like a different team in the 2nd half and did just enough to win the game. Boise State isn't a power 4 team, but they did make a playoff appearance 2 years ago and they have been one of the best group of 5 teams for years. That was a good win for Oregon and even though it was really close at times, they found a way to get the job done and will get better from that battle. They are ranked like one of the best teams in the nation and they are returning a ton of talent that made them one of the best last season too. Meanwhile, Oklahoma State has a 0-1 record overall this season and they aren't off to a good start in the Eric Morris era. Oklahoma State has been the bottom of the Big 12 for years with no real direction for their program and they finally hired a great coach in Eric Morris who brought a lot of players from that really good North Texas team last year. The talent hasn't really translated though, coming off a week 1 loss to Tulsa who isn't even a power 4 team. They lost 24-10 and couldn't do anything on offense which is all they had at North Texas last season. Oklahoma State is already in the dumps again after week 1 and they will be looking to bounce back here, but now they have one of the best teams in the nation coming into town and Oregon definitely isn't patting themselves on the back after that tight win last week. Oregon is going to bring their best effort here to right the ship after that tight game and show their dominance against an Oklahoma State team that was a complete disappointment in week 1. The best way to place a bet here is on Oregon to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes
“We won the game with total yards and some situations, but we didn’t really win the critical situations. They won some of those critical situations. They played better in special teams than us today. They did better on fourth down. We kind of gave them an opportunity, a chance to hang around.” - Dan Lanning after his team’s win against BSU in their last game.
"For a second year in a row, Tulsa, they reigned supreme on us right now on the football field. And that's a fact. I'm a fact guy, and I'm always going to tell you guys the way I feel.” - Eric Morris after his team’s loss against Tulsa in their last game.
