Breaking the Bowl Shutout

We're primed for our first bowl victory of the season and we couldn't be in a better position to get it. We've been singing the praises of Oregon State for more than two months. They are a dangerous, dangerous team. In the two months since we started highlighting the Beavers, the rest of the country has seen the magic that this team possesses. They came within a whisker of playing in the Rose Bowl. We think BYU is also a very good football team but this is not a good match up for them.

Maaco Las Vegas Bowl (Las Vegas, NV):

BYU Cougars vs. Oregon State Beavers - Line is Oregon State -2.5 - OSU is such a fast team that they are going to make this a nightmare for the solid but not overly athletic Cougars. The Rodgers brothers in particular should have a field day in this game. BYU will score because QB Max Hall is very good. However, OSU will score more, by a bunch. One key angle that is not being mentioned is that Mormons don't like Vegas, they don't belong in Vegas and they may very well get overwhelmed by Vegas. I don't think that the boys from Oregon State will have that problem. Look for a high scoring game that is won relatively handily by the Beavers. Take OSU -2.5. 48-34. LOCK IT UP
