The Oregon State Beavers and Washington State Cougars football programs are set to face one another on Saturday, November 23 in Corvallis.

Washington State narrowly won the 2023 meeting between the two sides by a final score of 38-35. The Cougs lead the all-time series 57-48 with three ties.

2024 will be a strange year for the Beavs and Cougs. After every other program in the Pac-12 departed for a new conference, Oregon State and Washington State will both still represent the "Conference of Champions" as the league's only two members. Their schedules are filled out with members of the Mountain West Conference, thanks to a previous agreement with the western-most Group of Five Conference for the next two seasons.

Both teams begin their respective seasons on August 31 with home games against opponents from the Big Sky Conference. Oregon State hosts the Idaho State Bengals while Washington State will host the Portland State Vikings.
