Prediction
Michigan 74, Oregon 70
Moneyline (ML)
There was no moneyline posted at the time of publishing. MICHIGAN would be the pick as it is looking to bounce back after a disappointing loss on the road against Illinois. Oregon hasn’t been great away from home this season, so look for the Wolverines to get that bounce-back win.
Against the Spread (ATS)
PASS. Michigan (-3.5, -110) is favored at home, but you can expect this game to be a nip and tuck affair and a total sweatshop to the end. They need to win by two or more buckets, and I expect they’ll win by four.
New to sports betting? A $10 wager on Michigan to cover the spread would profit $9.09 if it does so.
Over/Under (O/U)
OVER 137.5 (-110) is the play, going 3-0-1 in the past four on the road for the Ducks, while going 4-0-1 in UO’s past five overall. While Michigan is coming off an Under in Illinois, the Wolverines will show much better offensive results at home.
