Week 6 of the 2022 NCAA college football season includes a Pac-12 showdown between the Oregon State Beavers and Stanford Cardinal. After a 3-0 start to the year, Oregon State has suffered back-to-back losses. The Beavers' most recent defeat came in the form of a 42-16 loss to No. 16 Utah last weekend.
Meanwhile, Stanford enters this matchup with hopes of ending its three-game losing streak. The Cardinal's last outing saw them lose 45-27 to No. 13 Oregon in a game that saw the former trailing 31-3 at halftime. Needless to say, a better sta rted is needed this week.

Oregon State vs Stanford Prediction & Pick
From 2010 to 2020, Stanford beat Oregon State in 11 straight outings. However, that streak came to an end last year when the Beavers walked out with a 35-14 victory. Even with Stanford's last three losses this season being to top-25 teams, I do believe that Oregon State will continue its winning ways in this Pac-12 rivalry.
For starters, none of the Cardinal's three recent losses came in close games, whereas the Beavers only lost by three points to then-ranked No. 7 USC two weeks. Oregon State also has one of the better run games in the country, whereas Stanford gives up 228 rushing yards per game (No. 124).
Oregon State has played some solid footba ll this season and I trust Jonathan Smith's team to take advantage of Stanford's terrible defense.
Final Score Prediction:'Oregon State: 34 | Stanford: 17

Oregon State vs Stanford Best Bet
Shown by the above betting trends, Stanford hasn't had much spread success when it comes to Pac-12 matchups and has even lost six straight games to the North Division. Oregon State's offense has been solid this year and I don't think that Stanford can keep pace, especially with its defense constantly putting the team in a hole.
Don't overthink this one: back Oregon State on the spread.
