NCAA Football Free Pick – Saturday, December 4, 2010

No. 2 Oregon (11-0, 8-0) at Oregon State (5-6, 4-4), 3:30 p.m., ABC
The Ducks are one win away from playing for national title. But first, they must take care of the Beavers in the Civil War. It has been a disappointing season in Corvallis, but ending Oregon’s national title run would be a nice consolation prize.
The spread is more than two touchdowns, and normally I would tend to think that is way too many points for a rivalry game of this caliber. However, Mike Riley’s Beavers are just not the same team after losing James Rodgers.
Combine that with the 400 yards allowed defensively per game and Chip Kelly’s Ducks spread offense and this could get ugly early.
The Beavs only hope to score early and in bunches and dam up the flood as the Ducks have a tendency to start slow and then pile it on at the end.
Sorry Beavers fans, I think this is the end of the road.
