Washington State Cougars vs. Oregon State Beavers Prediction

I’m on the Cougars here. I know this is a bit of a rivalry between the remnants of the Pac-12 that came over to the WCC, but I just don’t love the scoring depth for Oregon State here and I think that Washington State’s the far better team in this matchup. Oregon State also could get caught looking ahead to Gonzaga as well on deck, so I’ll take Wazzu here.
