Stanford at Oregon State

The Beavers are light years away from where they were when they dropped all 18 Pac-10 games. They ended the streak at 23 with a huge win at home against a good USC team and are now 5-3 in the conference in their last eight. This team has proven it can hang in conference play, and has lost by three points to ‘Zona at home, beat USC, as mentioned above, and took Washington State to OT - not to mention winning at Stanford by 15, and California by four. The wrong team is favored here, as the Cardinal is winless in the Pac-10 on the road. The stigma may still be with the oddsmakers on this Oregon State team, but the results have definately changed. Oregon State gets this one.
