Pickswise: Bet Arizona with the points against Oregon State
It writes: "Arizona would likely be ranked if it had beaten Mississippi State in overtime back in Week 2, or if it knocked off USC in overtime back on October 7. Who knows where the Wildcats would be if Fifita played for the entire season? Either way, Arizona is 6-1 against the spread this season and I won’t stop riding that gravy train this week."
Sports Chat Place: Go with Wildcats with the points vs. Beavers
Andrew Jett writes: "I’m going to stay with Arizona. The Wildcats have been highly competitive in every game so far this year despite taking on some top-tier squads. Arizona dropped 516 yards (342 passing) on the road against a pretty good Washington State team in their last outing and did an even better job on defense. The Wildcats posted three takeaways and held the Cougars to just 234 yards (199 passing), 12 first downs and 4-of-11 on third-down tries. None of Arizona’s losses have come by more than seven points, so they’ve got the goods to keep pace in this one."
