Oakland vs Oregon State Prediction
Oakland comes into this game after snapping their three game losing streak at the buzzer against Loyola, and they will try to make it two wins in a row here. The Golden Grizzlies had three bad losses against Cleveland State, MSU, and Youngstown State prior to this trip to Hawaii, and they are scoring just 62.7 points per game this year. Oregon State has won five games in a row and they are shooting over 49% from the field this season. The Beavers are also a fantastic defensive team, as they are allowing 56.9 points against per game. Oregon State is the much better team on both sides of the court in this matchup and I think they are going to get an easy win here.
