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 WSU is just 9-10 ATS in its last 19 off a conference game and only 6-7 ATS off a win against a conference rival, while Oregon State is a perfect 3-0 ATS in its last three as a home underdog in the 14.5 to 17 points range and 7-4 ATS in its last 11 against teams with winning records.

The bottom line: We think that WSU gets caught looking past the lowly, but very hungry Beavers. That's a big mistake, as the numbers/stats and situation definitely point to OREGON STATE as the correct call in this one.
