Houston Cougars will have the most wins in the AAC

Handicapping ACC Football In 2014

People keep calling this league the former Big East but in reality it is more like the former Conference USA with another group of teams joining from that conference this season. Last year UCF upset Louisville’s bid to earn the inaugural league title on their way out and they represented well in dumping Baylor in a BCS bowl.

Houston vs. Louisville College Football Spread/Handicapping

When the Conference USA teams joined the American Athletic it was supposed to make it a pretty diluted league this season – but I doubt Louisville is thinking that right now. They have already been beaten once by former CUSA champ in Central Florida and if they are not careful another one, Houston, will beat them up too.

Oregon State

The Beavers may have lost their first game of the year to an FCS opponent, but they’ve redeemed themselves nicely, going 4-0 in their four games since. Now they’re up against a team that will fight fire with fire when it comes to the passing attack.

Washington State is ninth in the country in yards per contest. It throws the ball for 359.7 yards per game, and it is scoring 30.8 points per contest as a result. If you’re the Beavers, getting pressure on Connor Halliday is going to be crucial. The quarterback has thrown for 13 touchdowns on the year, but he’s far from perfect, as he’s tallied 11 interceptions as well.

Offensively, Oregon State has to continue doing what it’s been doing. It is second in the country in passing, as it has thrown for 420.6 yards per game, and it is scoring 41.6 points per contest—a much better number than it put up most of last season. Unfortunately, defense has been a problem, as the Beavers are giving up 31.6 points each outing.

Washington State

Washington State needs to stick to what it has done well thus far. Against a struggling defense, there’s no need to try and get fancy by running the ball. The Cougars are throwing for 359.7 yards per contest, compared to just 58.7 yards on the ground. [soliloquy id=”82219″]

Washington State has to take care of the football. Oregon State hasn’t been the dominant defensive force it was a year ago, but it still has veteran players who know how to take advantage of given opportunities. Holliday has to be smart and not rush things if the passing game is going to be effective.

The bad news is that Oregon State is coming off of a bye week and it appears to be healthy. The Beavers have been banged up all season, and now Washington State draws the short straw when it comes to taking on a unit at full strength.

The good news for both teams is that they have winning records. That’s the first time we can say that in this matchup since 2003.

The bad news is that one team has to lose, and while Washington State is a 1.5-point favorite, it is far from a long shot.

This one should be a lengthy, entertaining battle between two pass-happy teams. Oregon State and Washington State will put on quite a show, but don’t be shocked if it’s the Beavers sneaking away with the upset win when it’s all said and done.

They have two of the best players on the field between Sean Mannion and Brandin Cooks, and that tandem should do some serious damage in Pullman this weekend.

Score Prediction: Oklahoma 41 – Texas 24
