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.

Oregon at Michigan picks and predictions

Prediction

Michigan 83, Oregon 76

Moneyline

Michigan (-350) will set you back 3½ times the potential return, and that’s just a little too much risk for not nearly enough reward.

Oregon (+280) has dropped 3 in a row, and 4 of the past 5 games. It’s hard to suddenly trust the Ducks, especially against the ranked and high-paced Wolverines offense.

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.
