Oregon State’s offense carried them to a 52-40 win at Cal last week after the defense dominated in a 21-7 win against Utah the week prior.
The Beavers are favored against No. 18 UCLA and will need both sides of the ball to have good games in order to win.
On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, I’m joined by Carter Bahns of BeaverBlitz.com and the 247Sports national writing desk.
We look at the matchup between UCLA and Oregon State beyond just what’s on the line as both seek to make the Pac-12 title game.
There are 3 top 25 matchups for Pac-12 teams this week with WSU and Utah also in action.
The biggest one outside of Corvallis is USC traveling to #21 Notre Dame where the Trojans are an underdog. Lincoln Riley and co. have a chance to quiet the doubters talking about this USC team.
