Oklahoma State vs Oregon Prediction

The current betting odds have Oregon listed as a 27.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Oregon is 1-0 overall and they looked really good in their season opener. They did play a team from the FCS, but they played a really good FCS team that went to the FCS National Championship last year. Oregon looked really good in that game too, winning 59-13, and they look to be a force in the Big Ten this season once again. Meanwhile, Oklahoma State is 1-0 overall after winning at home in their season opener, but they weren't really tested in that game. They also played a team from the FCS, but they played a much weaker UT-Martin team and their offense still struggled to put up points. They beat them 27-7 and the defense looked good as they only gave up 7 points, but the offense wasn't nearly as dominant as it should have been. They didn't need to do much to win that game, but they weren't really tested at all and now they have to go on the road in their 2nd game, first road game of the season too, and play a ranked Oregon team that is one of the best in the nation. Oregon is still sour over the way their playoff campaign ended last season after being the number 1 team for most of the year so they aren't going to hold anything back in this game as they continue to play with a chip on their shoulder, trying to prove they are the best. Oklahoma State doesn't have the talent that Oregon has on their team and their offense just won't be able to compete on the road here. The best way to place a bet here is on Oregon to cover the spread in this game. 

Oklahoma State Oregon Prediction:  Our NCAAF Pick for Saturday, September 6, 2025 (3:30 pm ET start time) is Oregon 49 OK State 17.
