College football fans are in for a rare high-level game on Friday night when Oregon State travels 50 miles south to Autzen Stadium for a matchup with Oregon. The Beavers have seen little success in Eugene, last beating the Ducks on the road in 2007.
College Football Week 13 Oregon State vs. Oregon odds and matchup preview
Oregon State is coming off a heart-wrenching 22-20 loss in Corvallis to Washington, ending the Beavers Pac-12 Championship hopes. OSU is 8-3 on the year, and each loss came by three points or less.
Meanwhile, Oregon rattled off a fifth-consecutive victory in Week 12 vs. Arizona State. The Ducks will undoubtedly be the more motivated team on Friday night, as a win clinches a Pac-12 Championship berth. If Oregon falls short and Arizona beats Arizona State, it’ll be the Wildcats vs. Washington in the conference title game.
In the last 10 years, the UO is 7-3 in the rivalry formerly known as the Civil War.
Oregon State vs. Oregon best bets and odds: Oregon -13.5 (-110 or better)
The Ducks match up very well with the Beavers. Oregon State’s offense runs through Damien Martinez, who has 1,147 rushing yards and nine touchdowns. Oregon’s defense allows 96 rushing yards per game, 11th best in FBS.
If Martinez is stymied, it’ll be up to D.J. Uiagalelei to carry the offensive workload. D.J. has strung together impressive performances, but moving the ball will be troublesome if Martinez isn’t productive.
Watch for the Ducks to punch their ticket to the Pac-12 Championship with a convincing victory over Oregon State.
Oregon State vs. Oregon best bets and odds: Troy Franklin over 92.5 receiving yards (-115 or better)
Oregon’s offense is as good as it gets. The Ducks’ 46 points-per-game average is second only to LSU, and the Ducks have yet to score fewer than 30 points in a given week.
Bo Nix is vying to become the first Heisman winner out of Eugene since Marcus Mariota and the second in program history. Nix’s top target is Troy Franklin, forming an unstoppable QB-WR duo.
Franklin has the fourth-most receiving yards in the nation and has 275 yards in the last two weeks. The Beavers had issues guarding star pass-catchers in recent games, giving up 98 yards to Travis Hunter and 106 yards to Rome Odunze.

Former Oregon Ducks guard Jermaine Couisnard will get his shot at NBA Summer League.
After going undrafted in the 2024 NBA Draft, Couisnard signed a summer league contract with the New Orleans Pelicans, according to multiple reports Friday.
Couisnard averaged 16.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.3 assists in his final season at Oregon, his sixth in college basketball. Prior to his two seasons at Oregon, Couisnard played four seasons at South Carolina.
The 25-year-old will have a chance to audition for either an NBA or international contract at the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas July 12-22.
Couisnard’s former Oregon teammate, N’Faly Dante, also went undrafted and signed a two-way deal with the Houston Rockets on Thursday.

Oregon Ethics Commission nixes investigation into Gov. Kotek, First Lady
![Oregon Ethics Commission nixes investigation into Gov. Kotek, First Lady](https://www.koin.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/05/AP22138123310236.jpg?w=1280)
The commission said its analysis would be different if Aimee Kotek Wilson received a salary or other private benefits
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — The Oregon Government Ethics Commission has decided against launching a full investigation into complaints concerning Gov. Tina Kotek and her wife, Aimee Kotek Wilson.
At a meeting on Friday, the agency examined the preliminary report on the case involving a potential Office of the First Spouse before determining that the governor did not violate any ethics laws — including those on conflicts of interest or nepotism.
“We note that had the Governor unilaterally decided to provide the First Lady with a salary or other private benefits, the above analysis would be different,” the commission wrote in its preliminary review. “The analysis would also be different if there was any suggestion that the public duties of the First Lady could financially benefit a private business with which the First Lady was associated.”
In late March, news broke that Kotek Wilson had an office in the governor’s base of operations at the state library and an on-loan staffer from the Department of Administration Services. With a master’s degree in social work, the First Lady was also known to attend official meetings regarding behavioral health.
The following week, the governor clarified that her wife was solely an “unpaid volunteer with both lived and professional experience.” Kotek also announced she had asked the Ethics Commission for guidance on a potential Office of the First Spouse, but the commission later said it couldn’t advise her because of its plans to review complaints on the same matter.
Subsequently, the governor abandoned plans to create the First Lady’s office.
“After listening to and reflecting on the concerns of Oregonians who have contacted my office, as well as the advice of staff, I want to be clear about next steps: There will not be an Office of the First Spouse,” Kotek said.
The announcement came after her office released several emails from senior staff members who abruptly left their positions earlier in the year. In one email, Kotek’s former Chief of Staff Andrea Cooper said she was “asked not to attend” a meeting where events were added to Kotek Wilson’s calendar.

U.S. Supreme Court sides with Oregon city, allows ban on homeless people sleeping outdoors • Maine Morning Star
![U.S. Supreme Court sides with Oregon city, allows ban on homeless people sleeping outdoors • Maine Morning Star](https://mainemorningstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/homeless.jpeg)
The U.S. Supreme Court Friday sided with a local ordinance in Oregon that effectively bans homeless people from sleeping outdoors, and local governments will be allowed to enforce those laws.
In a 6-3 decision, Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote in the opinion that the enforcement of those local laws that regulate camping on public property does not constitute the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment.
“Homelessness is complex. Its causes are many. So may be the public policy responses required to address it,” he wrote. “The Constitution’s Eighth Amendment serves many important functions, but it does not authorize federal judges to wrest those rights and responsibilities from the American people and in their place dictate this Nation’s homelessness policy.”
The case originated in Grants Pass, a city in Oregon that argues its ordinance is a solution to the city’s homelessness crisis, which includes fines and potential jail time for repeat offenders who camp or sleep outdoors.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote a dissent arguing that the ordinance targets the status of being homeless and is therefore a violation of the Eighth Amendment.
“Grants Pass’s Ordinances criminalize being homeless,” she wrote. “The Ordinances’ purpose, text, and enforcement confirm that they target status, not conduct. For someone with no available shelter, the only way to comply with the Ordinances is to leave Grants Pass altogether.”
During oral arguments, the justices seemed split over ideological lines, with the conservative justices siding with the town in Oregon, arguing that policies and ordinances around homelessness are complex, and should be left up to local elected representatives rather than the courts.
The liberal justices criticized the city’s argument that homelessness is not a status protected under the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition of cruel and unusual punishment. The liberal justices argued the Grants Pass ordinance criminalized the status of being homeless.
The Biden administration took the middle ground in the case, and U.S. Deputy Solicitor General Edwin Kneedler offered partial support.
“It’s the municipality’s determination, certainly in the first instance with a great deal of flexibility, how to address the question of homelessness,” he said during oral arguments in late April.
