The million dollar question; can Cal win on the road, especially against a team that has beaten them nine out of the last 11 meetings, including a 31-14 victory last year in Berkeley.

The Beavers remain undefeated at Reser Stadium this season and will look to rebound from a disappointing 35-34 double-overtime loss at Washington in Week 7. The loss ended a two-game win streak for the Beavs who with a win this weekend are still contenders in the 2010 bowl races.

Reser is a tough place to play, and even tougher when facing a well rested, Beavers’ squad that boast the likes of running back Jaquizz Rodgers who wrecks havoc on any defense.

I expect Oregon to win this one, as Cal is just too unpredictable from week to week.
