Oregon Ducks

The Oregon Ducks enter Saturday with a 5-7 record in Big Ten play. They have lost 5 of their last 6 games including 4 straight. The latest was a 80-76 loss to Michigan on Wednesday night. Jackson Shelstad led the way for the Ducks with 18 points on 7 of 17 shooting from the field. The season points leader in Nate Bittle finished with 16 points and 7 rebounds. TJ Bamba added a 13 point 10 rebound double-double on 4 of 12 shooting from the field. Oregon has two wins over top 25 opponents earlier in the season, beating Texas A&M 80-70 and Alabama 83-81.  

Michigan State Spartans

The Spartans took on Los Angeles and ended up going 0-2 on their road trip. They lost 70-64 to USC and in their last game on Tuesday they lost 63-61 to UCLA. Jordan Akins is the only player to reach double digit points in that matchup with 15. The Spartans shot 37.7% from the field and 22.7% from 3 point. Michigan State had won 13 straight games prior to their trip to California, including wins over Illinois and North Carolina.  

Oregon is 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games 

The OVER is 3-2 in Oregonโ€™s last 5 road games

Michigan State is 2-2-1 ATS in their last 5 games

The UNDER is 4-1 in Michigan Stateโ€™s last 5 games

Oregon vs. Michigan State Prediction:

Take the Spartans to cover the number on Saturday afternoon. Michigan State is 7-4 ATS on their home court this season, including 3-1 ATS against Big Ten opponents. Oregon has covered in just one of their last seven games. The Ducks are 3-4 ATS on the road this season, and 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games. They are also 3-5 ATS with a rest disadvantage. I expect the Spartans, who rank 9th in the country, to have a big bounce back on their home court on Saturday and win big against the Ducks.                 

Oregon vs. Michigan State Prediction: Michigan State -7.5
