Trying to figure out why Huskies would be 10 point dogs in this game. Perfect record, #3 in the country AND they won the head to head in the regular season. ESPN gives Ducks 75% chance to win. Obviously Oregon can win but why such confidence they will? What’s up with that?

Washington has been mediocre against inferior competition since the first meeting and the Ducks have been killing teams.

They had 31 first downs on 300+ passing and 200+ rushing in the first meeting. The outcome was a bit of a fluke with several turnovers on downs and a missed FG at the end. It could have easily been a 10 point win on the road, Oregon has gotten better since then while Washington hasn't, and now it’s on a neutral field.

Because Oregon's 2023 Heisman QB is on absolute fire.

Rule #1 of college football: when the lower ranked team is a significant favorite over the higher ranked team, bet the lower ranked team.

Crazy stat...if you look at the point differential scores between Oregon and Washington and their common opponents, it's like +70 for Oregon.

Oregon blew out their common opponents, Washington scraped by.

The Pac10 looked like the best conference after week 2.
now that it's week 13, they are clearly a terrible conference that plays zero defense.
Neither of these teams are any good, and which ever one makes the playoffs is going to get their arse kicked.

and Oregon is a big favorite b/c they are the only team in teh conference (Zona too) that plays any defense.
Washington's defense is only slightly better than LSU's.
