Oregon State heads south to take on California this Saturday night. Until the 4th quarter of last year's game, when the Bears ran off 18 unanswered points to come from behind to win going away, its been a pretty good deal for the Beavers, who haven't lost in Strawberry Canyon this century.
And though Oregon State is in danger of their worst season in 18 years, and their first winless conference campaign in that time, its suddenly not out of the realm of possibility that the Beavers could pull this one out, as California, after racing out to a 5-0 start to the season, is in the midst of another midseason slump, something that's become the Bears' trademark of DOOM, having now lost 4 in a row after Oregon ran over them for a 44-28 win last Saturday night at Autzen.
