Colorado State Rams vs Oregon State Beavers Prediction, Odds and Picks for Saturday, 10/05/24

The Colorado State Rams hit the road to battle the Oregon State Beavers in a non-conference tilt. Colorado State held off UTEP 27-17 in Fort Collins last week for its first cover of the season. The offense has struggled for Colorado State, posting just 328.5 total yards per game and 154.3 passing yards. The Rams have cobbled together a mere 18.5 PPG and have allowed 28.5 PPG. The good news for the Rams is that their strength on defense is against the run, allowing 113.5 yards per game on the ground.

Oregon State has rolled up 267.8 yards per game on the ground to rank seventh in the nation, while going for 421.0 total yards per game and 27.8 PPG. Defensively, Oregon State is much more superior — allowing just 338.8 total yards per game and 21.3 PPG. The Beavers are 2-0 ATS so far this season as a favorite against FBS opponents, while the Rams are 0-1 ATS on the road while going 1-2 ATS in 3 tries against FBS opponents. Colorado State has been erratic and QB Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi has been rather inconsistent with 602 passing yards, 2 touchdown passes and 4 interceptions. If Oregon State can shut down RBs Justin Marshall and Avery Morrow, or build an early lead to change the Colorado State game-plan from ground based to an aerial attack, this one could get ugly.
