Why Alabama will beat Oregon
- Alabama has won 21 of its last 23 games against non-AP-ranked opponents.
- Oregon has lost 12 of its last 16 games against AP-ranked opponents.
- Alabama has won the first half in three of its last four games against non-AP-ranked opponents at a neutral venue.
Oregon vs Alabama Prediction
Oregon comes into this matchup with an undefeated record through seven games and they have won each of their last two by 10 points. Alabama has won three games in a row and they have scored 95, 85, and 100 points in the three wins. The Crimson Tide are the better offensive team, but their defense is not good. I am going to roll with Alabama to cover this number, but their defense is a concern.
David’s Pick Alabama -5.5
