Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Oregon vs. Arizona odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Moneyline (ML): Oregon +145 (bet $100 to win $145) | Arizona -175 (bet $175 to win $100)
Against the spread: Oregon +3.5 (-105) | Arizona -3.5 (-115)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Oregon vs. Arizona picks and predictions

Prediction

Arizona 75, Oregon 73

Moneyline

PASS.

The Wildcats (-175) are a bit too expensive to take, and the underdog is better played on the spread. Avoid a moneyline play.

Against the spread

BET OREGON +3.5 (-105).

The saying is defense wins championships, and the Ducks rank 22nd in KenPom’s defensive rating, while the Wildcats rank 29th. That should help keep this game close. Oregon is 5-2 ATS in its last 7 games. It has impressive wins on the season against Alabama (a No. 2 seed) and Wisconsin (a No. 3 seed).

The Wildcats have been incredibly inconsistent, winning just 3 of their last 8 games in regular-season play. They have gone just 5-7 ATS in their last 12 games. Arizona struggled against non-conference opponents earlier in the season as well. Considering those trends, take OREGON +3.5 (-105).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 153.5 (-115).

The Ducks have stepped up defensively over the past several weeks, holding opponents to 74 or fewer points in 7 straight games and 59 or fewer in 2 of 3 postseason outings. Oregon is 1-8 O/U in its last 9 contests.

The Wildcats have gone Under in 2 straight games. Against Houston and Iowa State — 2 of the top defensive teams in the Big 12 — Arizona is 1-3 O/U this season. Bet UNDER 153.5 (-115).

March Madness: Liberty vs. Oregon odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Liberty vs. Oregon odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 12 seed Liberty Flames (28-6) and No. 5 seed Oregon Ducks (24-9) meet in an NCAA Tournament first-round game in the East Region Friday night. Tip-off from Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle is scheduled for 10:10 p.m. ET (truTV). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Liberty vs. Oregon odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Liberty has won 5 games in a row after defeating Jacksonville State 79-67 in the CUSA Tournament final Saturday, covering as a 5.5-point favorite. The Flames trailed by 8 points early but extended their lead to as many as 20 in the second half of the ticket-punching victory. They are led by G Taelon Peter, who averages 13.9 points per game (PPG), and G Kaden Metheny, who averages 13.5 PPG.

Oregon snapped an 8-game winning streak with a 74-64 loss against Michigan State in the Big Ten quarterfinals last Friday (March 14). The Ducks are led by C Nate Bittle, who averages 14.1 PPG and 7.4 rebounds. Bittle had a double-double with 22 points and 11 rebounds vs. Michigan State last Friday.

Liberty vs. Oregon picks and predictions

Prediction

Liberty 75, Oregon 73

Moneyline

BET LIBERTY (+240).

While winning Friday will certainly be a tall task for the Flames, they have all the pieces to compete. They boast one of the best defenses in the country, allowing just 62.9 PPG (ninth-fewest), while shooting 49.4% from the field — sixth-best nationally. They have won 9 of their last 10 games and excel at ball movement, averaging 16.9 assists per game. If the Flames can capitalize on their free throws, they have a real shot at pulling off an upset.

Against the spread

PASS.

The moneyline has the best value on the Flames.

Over/Under

BET OVER 139.5 (-105).

While the Flames stand out on defense, this total is too low to bet the Under. The Flames have scored 79 or more points in 6 straight games, while allowing 67 or more in 4 of their last 6 outings.

The Ducks have allowed 73 or more points in 6 of their last 10 games, including 2 of their last 3 outings.

Oregon vs. Michigan State odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Oregon vs. Michigan State odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The eighth-seeded Oregon Ducks (24-8) battle the top-seeded Michigan State Spartans (26-5) Friday in the quarterfinal round of the Big Ten Tournament. Tip-off from Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis is scheduled for noon ET (Big Ten Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Oregon vs. Michigan State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Oregon extended its winning streak to 8 games Thursday, taking down the Indiana Hoosiers, 72-59, in the second round of the tournament. The Ducks covered as 2-point favorites, while the Under (142) hit. G Jackson Shelstad led the way with 18 points in the win. Regardless of how it finishes in the conference tournament, Oregon is set to make just its second NCAA Tournament appearance since 2022.

Michigan State, which is No. 6 in the USA TODAY Sports Men’s Basketball Coaches Poll, enters the tournament as the 1 seed after winning 8 of its last 9 games. The Spartans capped off the regular season with a dominant 79-62 win over their in-state rival, the Michigan Wolverines, Saturday, covering as 7.5-point home favorites. The Under (149) hit. G Tre Holloman provided a spark off the bench, leading the team with 20 points. Now, Michigan State is looking to carry that momentum into the postseason and capture its first Big Ten Tournament title since 2019.

Michigan State beat the Ducks, 86-74, in their lone regular-season meeting Feb. 8. The Spartans covered as 10-point home favorites, and the Over (146) cashed.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Oregon vs. Michigan State picks and predictions

Prediction

Michigan State 73, Oregon 64

Moneyline

PASS.

The top-seeded Spartans (-235) should get the victory Friday afternoon, but I’m going to avoid paying that juice on the moneyline and will take my wager to the spread.

Against the spread

BET MICHIGAN STATE -5.5 (-110).

There are 3 things you can count on in life: Death, taxes, and Tom Izzo’s teams showing up in March. Michigan State is built for this time of year, and betting against the Spartans in tournament play is never a wise move.

Oregon has played well, riding an 8-game win streak, but outside of a road win at Wisconsin, the resume isn’t overly impressive. Meanwhile, Michigan State has taken down 5 ranked teams in its last 6 games.

The Spartans thrive on defense, allowing just 67 points per game, and their balanced scoring attack makes them tough to stop. They don’t rely on a single star; when one player gets shut down, another steps up. Expect Michigan State to grind this one out, advance to the semifinals, and continue its March magic.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 143.5 (-115).

The first meeting went Over, but this is a different setting. Oregon has hit the Under in 6 of its last 7 games, while Michigan State has gone Under in 8 of its last 10 outings. The Spartans defense should control the pace, making points tough to come by. Expect another Under here.

Oregon at Michigan State odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Oregon at Michigan State odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Oregon Ducks (16-7, 5-7 Big Ten) visit the No. 9 Michigan State Spartans (18-4, 9-2) Saturday at Breslin Center in East Lansing. Tip-off is scheduled for noon ET (FOX). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Oregon vs. Michigan State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Ducks lost 80-76 at Michigan to open the 2-game Great Lake States road trip, but Oregon was able to cover as a 7.5-point underdog to halt a 6-game non-cover skid. The Over (152) cashed, and the total has now gone high in 4 of the past 5 outings.

The Spartans had a rough ride in Southern California, losing to USC and UCLA Feb. 1-4, although the average margin of defeat was just 4.0 points per game (PPG). After an 8-1 against-the-spread (ATS) run from Nov. 27-Jan. 12, Sparty is just 2-3-1 ATS in the past 6 games. The Under has cashed in 3 in a row and 8 of the past 11 outings.

These teams met in a non-conference game at Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Portland, Ore., on Nov. 26, 2022. Sparty won 74-70 while cashing as a 3.5-point favorite while the Over (134) hit.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Oregon at Michigan State picks and predictions

Prediction

Michigan State 76, Oregon 67

Moneyline

Michigan State (-375) costs more than 3½ times the potential return, and that’s way too much risk for not nearly enough reward.

For the Spartans, they are risky because they’ve suffered losses in the past 2 games, too.

However, Oregon (+290) has dropped 4 in a row, and it cannot be trusted, too.

AVOID.

Against the spread

BACK MICHIGAN STATE -8.5 (-110) lightly.

Oregon +8.5 (-115) is just 1-6 ATS in the past 7 games, while going 4-10 ATS in the previous 14 outings.

For Michigan State, it is just 2-3-1 ATS in the previous 6 contests, so neither of these teams is killing it from a cover perspective.

Over/Under

UNDER 146.5 (-105) is the lean, but go with a half-unit play at best.

The Under has cashed in 3 consecutive outings for Michigan State, while going 4-1 in the previous 5 contests. In addition, Sparty has cashed low on the total in each of the past 2 games at home, while going 7-1 in the past 8 outings at Breslin Center.

For Oregon, though, the Over is 4-1 in the past 5 games, so proceed with caution. The Under is 3-3 in 6 road conference games to date.

Oregon at Michigan odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Oregon at Michigan odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Oregon Ducks (16-6, 5-6 Big Ten) visit the No. 22 Michigan Wolverines (16-5, 8-2) Wednesday at Crisler Center in Ann Arbor. Tip-off is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. ET (Big Ten Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Oregon vs. Michigan odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Ducks have dropped 3 in a row, while going 0-6 against the spread (ATS) in the past 6 outings. That includes a pair of road losses to Minnesota (Jan. 25) and UCLA (Thursday). The Over has connected in 3 of the past 4 outings, as Oregon has allowed 77 or more points in its last 3. The Ducks’ most recent outing was a 77-71 home loss as 7-point favorites vs. Nebraska Sunday — the Over (147.5) cashed by a hook.

The Wolverines grinded out a 66-63 win at Rutgers last time out on Saturday. It was their second win a row after getting demolished at then-No. 12, now-No. 7 Purdue 91-64 Jan. 24. Like Oregon, Michigan has been having difficult against the number, failing to cover the previous 5 outings — they were 6.5-point favorites in the loss at Rutgers. The Under has hit in the past 2 games for Michigan after a 7-0 run to the Over.

Against the spread

BACK OREGON +8.5 (-105), but go lightly. Neither of these teams inspire a ton of confidence. As mentioned, the Ducks are on an 0-6 ATS run, while the Wolverines haven’t covered in their last 5 outings.

Go with a half-unit play on the DUCKS +8.5 (-105) on the road, but certainly don’t get carried away.

Over/Under

OVER 153.5 (-115) might be the best play on the board.

The Wolverines have cashed Unders in their last 2 games, but the Over is 7-2 in their past 9 games — and 10-3 in the previous 13.

For the Ducks, the total has ended up going Over in 3 of the past 4 games, while hitting at a 6-3 clip in the previous 9 contests.

Prediction

Oregon 83, Nebraska 73

Moneyline

Nebraska has only 2 road wins in 7 games this season and is 0-4 on the road in conference play while Oregon is 8-3 at home this season.

The Ducks should not have an issue winning this game, but you will get much better value with the spread than -300 odds on the ML.

PASS.

All 4 of Nebraska’s road conference losses have been by at least 10 points while 11 of the Ducks’ 16 wins have been by at least 8 points.

BET OREGON -6.5 (-118).

Five of the last 7 games for Nebraska have had totals higher than 146 while 4 of Oregon’s last 5 wins have surpassed the projection for this game. The Ducks average 80.2 points in their wins.

The No. 18 Oregon Ducks (16-4, 5-4 Big Ten) and the UCLA Bruins (15-6, 6-4) meet Thursday at Pauley Pavilion in L.A. Tip-off is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET (FS1). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Oregon vs. UCLA odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Ducks lost 77-69 at the Minnesota Golden Gophers last time out Saturday as a 4.5-point favorite as the Over (138.5) cashed. Oregon has dropped 2 of the past 3 outings, while it is 0-4 against the spread (ATS) in the past 4 games, and 1-6 ATS in the past 7 contests since Jan. 2.

As far as the total for Oregon, the Over is 3-1 in the past 4 games, while going 5-2 across the previous 7 outings.

The Bruins posted an 82-76 win as a 1.5-point favorite on the road against crosstown rival USC last time out Monday as the Over (138.5) cashed, and the total has gone high in 6 of the previous 7 games. While UCLA has won 4 in a row, it has struggled against the number, going 2-6 ATS in the past 8 games.

The Bruins picked up a 73-71 win in the first meeting on Dec. 8 in Eugene as a 3.5-point underdog as the Over (137) cashed.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Oregon at UCLA picks and predictions

Prediction

UCLA 80, Oregon 74

Moneyline

UCLA (-190) will cost you nearly 2 times your potential return, and that’s a little too expensive for a standalone wager. However, if you were to toss the Bruins into a multi-leg parlay, especially if you have a boost or promotion, this isn’t priced out of line at all. Remember, the Bruins picked up an outright victory against Oregon (+155) in the first meeting in Eugene.

PASS.

Against the spread

UCLA -4.5 (-110) is the lean, but don’t get carried away.

Both of these teams have really struggled against the number lately. The Bruins have managed to go just 2-6 ATS in the past 8 outings, while cashing 1-3 ATS in 4 conference home games. They’re 3-7 ATS in 10 Big Ten games, but one of those covers was at Oregon Dec. 8.

For Oregon +4.5 (-110), it is in an 0-4 ATS nosedive, while going 1-6 ATS in the past 7 games, and 3-8 ATS across the past 11 outings. That includes a 1-2 ATS mark in the past 3 Big Ten road contests.

Over/Under

OVER 140.5 (-110) might be the best play on the board.

We had a total of 144 points in the first meeting in Eugene. More importantly, the Over has cashed at a 5-2 pace in 7 games for Oregon since Jan. 2. The Over has cashed in the past 2 conference road outings, too.

For UCLA, the total has gone high in 6 of the past 7 outings, while cashing at a 4-0 pace in the previous 4 games at Pauley.

Washington at Oregon odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Washington at Oregon odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Washington Huskies (10-8, 1-6 Big Ten) and the No. 15 Oregon Ducks (15-3, 4-3) meet Tuesday at Matthew Knight Arena in Eugene, Ore. Tip-off is scheduled for 11 p.m. ET (Big Ten Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Washington vs. Oregon odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Huskies have dropped the past 4 games since winning their first-ever Big Ten conference tilt against Maryland on Jan. 2. Washington has failed to cover the past 3 games, too, while alternating the Under and Over in the past 6 games since Dec. 29.

For the Ducks, they’re looking to rebound from a 65-58 loss at home to the Purdue Boilermakers in a battle of ranked opponents. While Oregon has won 3 of the past 4 games, it has covered just once in the past 5 outings. The Under and Over has alternated in its past 4 outings, too.

PASS.

Against the spread

WASHINGTON +12.5 (-110) is worth a look in this rivalry. While the Huskies haven’t played well in conference play lately, seeing a familiar face should get them going. These former Pac-12 schools have split the past 4 meetings, while Washington is 3-1 ATS in the past 4 in the series, and 5-2 ATS in the previous 7 games.

Oregon -12.5 (-110) has done a good job winning games, but it is just 1-4 ATS in the past 5 outings, while going 2-3 ATS this season as a double-digit favorite.

Over/Under

OVER 147.5 (-110) is the lean, but go with a half-unit play at best.

The Over has a 3-2 edge for the Ducks in the past 5 games, with the total going high in 4 of the past 6 games in Eugene.

For the Huskies, the Over is 7-3 across the past 10 outings, with the total going high at a 4-2-1 clip in the past 7 meetings between these teams since Dec. 12, 2020.

Purdue at Oregon picks and predictions

Prediction

Oregon 77, Purdue 72

Moneyline

PASS.

There’s no great reason to play the moneyline over the spread here. Purdue hasn’t covered well against ranked sides and isn’t likely to come out on top. Avoid playing it as a moneyline underdog.

Against the spread

BET OREGON -2.5 (-110).

The Boilermakers have beaten up weak teams as of late, but in their 5 games against ranked opponents this season, they are just 1-4 ATS. Purdue is just 4-5 ATS away from home as well.

The Ducks covered against both Alabama and Texas A&M earlier in the season and can play at a high level. They are 2-1 ATS against ranked opponents. Oregon is 3-3 ATS in its last 6. Expect it to play well against top teams as it has all season.

Back OREGON -2.5 (-110).

Over/Under

BET OVER 147.5 (-110).

There should be ample scoring in this one. The Ducks have gone Over in 3 of their last 4 games, scoring at least 73 in all of those while allowing at least 79 in 3 of those 4. Oregon is 9-8 O/U on the season.

Purdue has gone Over in 3 of its last 5 games and has scored at least 70 in 4 of its last 6. The Boilermakers defense has been stout, but it has allowed at least 76 in 4 of their 5 games against ranked sides.

Take OVER 147.5 (-110).

Oregon at Penn State picks and predictions

Prediction

Oregon 78, Penn State 74

Moneyline

OREGON (-145) is the play on the moneyline if you don’t want to lay the little bit of points. This could be a very close game, so it’s very possible the Ducks get the win, but the Nittany Lions grab a backdoor cover.

Penn State (+120) can’t be trusted, though, not after coming off an ugly 39-point loss against Illinois. That’s hard to put out of your mind since it is so fresh.

Against the spread

OREGON -2.5 (-110) is worth playing lightly in this road game. The Ducks are coming off an impressive road win at Ohio State, while posting 3 covers in the past 5 outings.

As a single-digit favorite, the Ducks are just 1-3 ATS in the past 4 outings, so tread lightly.

Penn State +2.5 (-110) has failed to cover the past 5 games, however, while going 0-3 SU/ATS as an underdog this season.

Over/Under

UNDER 154.5 (-105) is the lean, but go with a half-unit play at best.

The total has gone low in the past 2 games for Penn State, while cashing in 7 of the past 11 games since Nov. 25.

Oregon has hit in 3 of the past 5 games, while the defense has allowed 73 or fewer points in 6 of the previous 8 outings.
