Oregon is on a 16-game winning streak right now to get to 18-2 overall and 7-0 in the Pac-12. The Ducks have covered the spread in seven straight to move to 11-8 against the spread on the season. Oregon puts up 79.3 points per game on offense while allowing just 63.2 per game on defense. The offense struggles to just 72.3 points per game on the road. Dillon Brooks is leading the game with 13.4 points per game, but he is questionable to play tonight with a leg injury. Chris Boucher is adding 13.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per contest.

Both teams come in pretty hot, especially at the betting window. The injury to Brooks is a concern, but if he can go, Oregon would likely be favored. The Ducks have won 16 straight and could be suspect to a loss, but I like them to win on the road tonight. Utah is just 5-4 against the spread at home and I think they will struggle with the Oregon defense.
