CIVIL WAR
preview
This year’s game is in Corvallis, where the Beavers
are 3-3 on the season. The D ucksare undefeated
on the road, but a rivalry game in a hostile environ- 1
ment is never a cakewalk. Last year, the Ducks bare
ly escaped at home, 36-35. It’s a battle between
first and last in the PAC-12 North division, and the
Ducks have won the last six Civil War games.
O re g o n D u c k s (10-1):
The Ducks have already clinched the North division, ,
and are trying to make the inaugural College Foot
ball Playoff. Led by Heisman frontrunner Marcus |
Mariota, Oregon boasts one of the best offenses
in the country, it’s a fast-paced, balanced attack
that throws for 300 yards and runs for another 235 |
per game. The team is third in the nation in scoring,
and has won convincingly in every game since the
Arizona loss.
O re g o n S t a t e B e a v e rs (5 -6 ):
The Beavers are last in the North division, and are
seeking bowl eligibility. Led by Sean Mannion, Or
egon State features an offense that relies on the
passing game. The Beavs are top 25 in passing, but
near the bottom in the country in rushing. They al
low 30+ points a game, but an upset win over ASU
at home two weeks ago.has the Beaver faithful in
the “Giant Killer” mindset.
P re d ic tio n : Oregon 38, Oregon State 20.
