Oregon vs. Washington Predictions

The Pac-12 Championship Game features a rematch that could not be more evenly poised. The Oregon Ducks, riding a six-game winning streak, have been demolishing opponents with an average margin of victory of 26 points in their last six outings. Quarterback Bo Nix, a Heisman Trophy frontrunner, has been in stellar form, leading an offense that ranks second in the Pac-12 in total offense. The Ducks’ defense, allowing just 306.9 yards per game, will be pivotal in containing Washington’s potent attack.

Washington Huskies enter the fray undefeated, with a 19-game winning streak dating back to last season. Their offense, led by quarterback Michael Penix Jr., another Heisman contender, has been nothing short of explosive, ranking first in the Pac-12 in total offense. However, the Huskies have shown vulnerability, with their last three victories coming by a slim margin. Their defense, which has been less consistent, ranking eighth in the conference, will face its toughest test against Oregon’s high-powered offense.

The key player matchup to watch is the quarterback duel between Oregon’s Bo Nix and Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. Both have been instrumental in their teams’ success and will be under the spotlight in this high-pressure game. The outcome could hinge on which defense better disrupts the opposing star quarterback and which offensive line gives their signal-caller the time needed to operate. With both teams boasting strong offensive lines and dynamic playmakers, this championship game is poised to be a classic.

Oregon vs. Washington Picks

While Oregon has been dominant in recent weeks, Washington’s undefeated record and their previous victory over the Ducks this season cannot be overlooked.

The Huskies’ offense, led by Michael Penix Jr., has the firepower to keep pace with Oregon’s scoring, and their knack for late-game heroics could be the difference-maker. Additionally, the Huskies’ 5-6 record against the spread this season includes a 2-4 record at home, which may not inspire confidence, but their ability to win outright as underdogs adds value to taking the points with Washington.

Furthermore, the game being played on a neutral field in Las Vegas levels the playing field, negating Oregon’s home advantage from their previous matchups. The Ducks’ defense, while statistically superior, will be tested by Washington’s top-ranked offense in the conference. The Huskies’ ability to spread the ball and create explosive plays could disrupt Oregon’s defensive schemes.

With the spread set at +10.0 for Washington, the Huskies don’t necessarily have to win; they just need to keep the game within a touchdown and a field goal. Given the high stakes of the game and the pressure on both teams, a close contest is likely, making Washington against the spread the more prudent pick.

The Pick: Washington +10 | -112 at BetRivers
