Oregon State vs. Oregon Head-to-Head Record
Oregon holds a significant historical edge with a record of 67 wins, 10 ties, and 48 losses in the Civil War. The Beavers and the Ducks have faced off every season since 1945, and when they missed the head-to-head matchup in 1944, they actually played twice the next season. The Ducks are currently on a two-game win streak and have scored 80 points in those games.
This rivalry is one of the oldest and deserves a true name to capture its meaning in the State of Oregon.
Yes. This game is back to being called the “Civil War”. #GoDucks https://t.co/IuIzpnt4hN

Oregon State vs. Oregon Prediction
The Oregon State Beavers enter Saturday’s clash in Eugene carrying the weight of a 0-3 start and facing their most daunting challenge yet against a bitter rival. With losses averaging 19.7 points per game, expectations remain modest for the Beavers in this hostile environment.
Their struggles extend beyond the scoreboard, as procedural penalties and turnovers have plagued them throughout the season, including long-snapping issues that effectively cost them their Week 2 game against Fresno State.
Oregon presents a nightmare matchup for the struggling Beavers. The Ducks’ offense ranks seventh nationally in PFSN impact score with an elite A- rating, powered by quarterback Dante Moore’s impressive 78.1% completion rate and seven touchdowns against one interception.
This potent attack faces an Oregon State defense ranked 109th out of 136 teams, creating a significant mismatch that favors the home team.
The trajectory difference between these programs couldn’t be starker. Oregon has dominated early, outscoring opponents 162-30 through three games while maintaining their championship aspirations despite losing ten players to the NFL, including standouts like Josh Conerly Jr. and Dillon Gabriel.
Meanwhile, Oregon State continues rebuilding after conference realignment devastation and coaching changes. With the Ducks having scored 80 points in their last two meetings and holding an eight-game home winning streak in this series, another lopsided result appears likely in Eugene.
Prediction: Oregon 58, Oregon State 10
