Arizona at Oregon: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Oregon 72, Arizona 69
Money line (ML)
Arizona was solid in a couple of recent road tests at Colorado and USC. For the season, the Wildcats have been a solid road team, especially on offense.
UA is solid on the offensive glass, knocks down 3s at a solid rate, and is among the top teams in the nation in getting to the free-throw line where it shoots an above-average 72.8%.
Figure the Wildcats as at least a 40% proposition in this one. That makes ARIZONA +180 a generous price to leverage.

Against the spread (ATS)
The Ducks are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games as the favorites. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last five games of this series.
Oregon plays a key game against UCLA Wednesday and could get caught looking forward to that test. Arizona has come together nicely to play out the end of its season in a good program-building fashion. BACK THE WILDCATS +4.5 (-105).
Over/Under (O/U)
