LOSS

The Oregon State Beavers have a lot of question marks off of a 4-8 season in 2016. That has left the Beavers at 6-18 over the last two years. What is worse for this team is the fact that they are now 0-13 on the road going back to late 2013. They have a lot to overcome, especially offensively where the 13 road games show them scoring an average of just 18.1 points per game. The Beavers did take 6.5 ppg off the opponents scoreboard last year vs. 2015. The Rams had a productive offense last year, and are pretty capable with a lot of key returning skill players. However, the biggest question mark is the offensive line that is for the most part going to be rebuilt, and it may take time to get things going. The Rams are stepping up in class with a revamped offensive line, and their last three vs. Pac-12 teams shows fewer than 14 ppg. They surely should exceed that here, but with Oregon State having few offensive answers, and Colorado State not as productive when stepping up in class, I'm playing the UNDER in this one.
