MIT Simulator - CFB Saturday Stanford vs Oregon Winner
MIT Simulator Score - Stanford 28.39, Purdue 27.26 - Projected Margin of Victory: 1.13 - Current Line: 10.5 - Variance to Line: 9.37 - MIT Simulator shows Edge Factor of 9.37 points. Value in excess of a full TD. Projected box-score shows Cardinal rushing edge of 12.71 yards in excess of Ducks rushing total. Key factors noted: Oregon is still without QB Justin Herbert but have a senior QB, Taylor Alie, back this week and between he and freshman QB Braxton Burmeister the Ducks at least have a tandem to work with this week. The Cardinal tandem of Keller Chryst and KJ Costello has not been overly impressive so Stanford doesn't necessarily have a huge QB edge here. The Cardinal also have just the 101st ranked defense this season and they've got a couple of key defensive players out for the first half of this game due to "targeting" in last week's game. Oregon offense also should get a boost with the return of wide receivers Dillon Mitchell and Charles Nelson. Ducks are 8-3 ATS in last 11 games on "The Farm" at Stanford. The Cardinal defense is allowing 435 yards per game this season. The Oregon defense is allowing only 338 yards per game this season. Projected box-score shows Cardinal passing edge of 10.48 yards in excess of Boilermakers passing total. Total edge of 23.19 total yards for Stanford equating to victory by the slimmest of margins - just 1.13 points per MIT Simulator. Play: OREGON
