Prediction: Oregon State Beavers @ Nevada Wolfpack
By STEVEN VAUGHAN, 750 THE GAME
Each week Steven Vaughan will predict the score of every Oregon State Beavers football game. This week the Beavers take on the Nevada Wolfpack from Mackay Stadium in Reno. The Beavers are -4 on Saturday.
The betting line is different at all the different sports books. Nevada is getting points at home, but their record is 2-3. Nevada is much better than the record would indicate. A close loss to SMU and San Jose State. Nevada’s defensive line is good and will be able to slow Oregon State’s running attack down. We have been waiting for Gevani McCoy to throw the football down the field and make a throw when it counts. This may have to be the game for the Beavers. I have Nevada winning this game on the field. It will be a slow game with little scoring. Both teams are in the top 10 of time of possession in the nation. Being on the road in a weird environment will be enough for Oregon State to lose.
