We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics:

As note that Stanford is 4-2 ATS in its last six as a road favorite and 6-4 ATS in its last ten against teams with winning records, while Oregon is just 2-7 ATS in its last nine as an underdog, only 7-9 ATS in its last 16 at home and 1-3 ATS in its last four after two or more consecutive SU victories.

The bottom line: The Ducks were smashed by the Cardinal last year. The Stanford defense looks even better this season. The Oregon offense has looked decent early, but we think it stumbles against the step up in competition. Play on STANFORD.
