What a Win for Arizona

Arizona has all kinds of confidence heading into this game. Akron was a popular play in the first game, but Akron sure made a statement. Akron’s offense put up 93 points on the way to the victory. They were up 10 at halftime, and in the second half, they pulled away even more behind a 52-point performance. Arizona shot 56.5 percent from the field and 48 percent from behind the three-point line. Jaden Bradley had a strong game, putting up 19 points, six rebounds, and three assists. 

Arizona has a 23-12 overall record, and it will face a familiar former Pac-12 foe in this one. Arizona is averaging 82.1 points, while its defense is giving up 72.2 points per game. As a team, they are shooting 47.6 percent from the field. Caleb Love looks to make one last run in the NCAA Tournament. On the season, he is averaging 16.4 points while shooting 38.7 percent from the field and 32.6 percent from behind the three-point line. 

What Oregon Team Shows Up?

Oregon’s biggest issue has been inconsistency, but if the same team shows up that showed up in the first round, they should find success. Oregon faced off against Liberty, and they secured the 81-52 victory. At halftime, they were up 44-20, and they never looked back on the way to the victory. Oregon shot 54.4 percent from the field and 47.6 percent from behind the three-point line. Jackson Shelstad had a strong game, putting up 17 points, four rebounds, and three assists. Two games ago against Michigan State, they lost 74-64.

Even though has been a little inconsistency, Oregon still sits with a 25-9 record overall. Oregon on the season is averaging 76.4 points while their defense is giving up 70.4 points per game. Nate Bittle is averaging 14.1 points while shooting 51 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from behind the three point line.

Arizona vs Oregon Prediction

Give me the value here with the Oregon here. I have been impressed with the Nate Bittle all year and he’s going to have another huge game here. Oregon’s offense is averaging 76.4 points, and they are going to have no issue again. Arizona’s offense is averaging 82.1 points, but their defense can’t be trusted, as they are giving up 72.2 points per game. Caleb Love is going to have one of his down games, and Oregon will keep it close. Back Oregon against the spread.
