Oregon State at Stanford

Stanford has really been an improving team as the season progresses. They have knocked off USC, UCLA, Washington State and Washington at home. They have out-rebounded eight of their last nine opponents while Oregon State is being out-rebounded in 12 straight by seven boards a game. Oregon St shoots just 41% on the road and a horrid 25% from beyond the arc, with an even poorer representation from the charity stripe hitting just 50.6%. Stanford has allowed the last eight opponents to shoot only 36.8% and this team, at 15-8, needs a win. We look for Stanford to win convincingly here as Oregon St. has lost by 11 or more points against any Pac-10 team with a winning record.
