Oregon vs. Stanford picks and predictions
Prediction
Oregon 80, Stanford 73
Moneyline
Oregon (-250) is quite a bit expensive in this renewal of its Pac-12 rivalry with Stanford (+195). The Ducks will cost you 2 1/2 times your potential return, and that’s way too expensive for not enough reward, either straight up or as part of a multi-leg parlay.
PASS.
Against the spread
OREGON -5.5 (-110) is a strong play laying the little bit of points. The Ducks are much more battle-tested than Stanford +5.5 (-110), having recorded victories against Alabama, San Diego State and Texas A&M so far this season.
Stanford has an impressive 9-2 SU record, but it is just 2-3 ATS in the past 5 games, and it has a pair of losses against Cal Poly and Grand Canyon. It isn’t likely to match up very well with the ranked Ducks.
Over/Under
OVER 149.5 (-110) is the lean, but go with a half-unit wager.
The Over has cashed in 4 of the past 5 games for Stanford, while going 2-1 in the past 3 home contests.
For Oregon, the Over has cashed in the past 2 games, while going 5-2 in the past 7 outings.
