12. Oregon State

It’s no secret that the Beavers were atrocious last year, finishing with a 1-11 record (0-9 Pac-12). But I don’t think people understand how bad they actually were.

The Beavers’ lone win was a scare against an FCS school that didn’t win a game in 2017: Portland State. The Sun Devils took care of business in Corvallis last year, and I would expect them to do the same when they host OSU this season.

When I look at Oregon State’s roster, I really don’t see any strengths on that team compared to the rest of the Pac-12. Because of this, Oregon State will struggle to win a Pac-12 game in Jonathan Smith’s first year as head coach.

At least they have baseball.

Will ASU win?: Yes.
