College Football Betting Odds: California vs. Oregon

Week Six in the NCAA Football betting kicks off in Pac-12 country and we get our first primetime look at the Quack Attack since its opening week setback against LSU.

Chip Kelly’s crew will need some help if they hope to return to the BCS title game but with the Bayou Bengals now a solid No.1 in the nation, that loss may not come back to bite the Ducks – especially if they take care of business in Palo Alto in mid-November.

First things first, however. Though the SU result may be a foregone conclusion (the Bears have dropped eight of their last nine in Eugene), the ATS outcome could be a different story as Cal has covered four of fi ve in this series since 2006.

BetOnline Sportsbook currently have the Ducks listed as 24-point favorites against the Golden Bears, and the game's total is sitting at 65.

You also don’t see the Berkeley bunch getting this price very often under HC Jeff Tedford.

In fact, in Tedford’s 10 years on the Cal sidelines, the Bears have gotten double-digits just eight times and have delivered a picnic-like 7-1 ATS record.

And while we realize the visitors are a winless 0-4 ATS during the week of late and 0-3 ATS after facing the Huskies, Oregon’s own 1-4 ATS weekday log and 2-5 ATS mark off a SU conference road win of 21 or more points is nothing to write home about.

Weak numbers for both squads could easily have us watching this Week Six opener but Cal’s 7-1 ATS mark in Game Five of the season, along with the Ducks’ below average defense (24 PPG and 412 YPG to FBS foes this season), suggests the points are the play tonight in Autzen Stadium.
