The Oregon State Beavers and the Utah Utes meet Wednesday in college basketball action from Jon M. Huntsman Center. 

Oregon State enters this one at 13-11 so far. The Beavers have consecutive wins over California and Stanford in their last pair. As for the Utes, they’re 10-11 this year. Utah is 1-4 in their last five and coming off a win over USC. Check back all season long for free college basketball picks at Sports Chat Place. 

Oregon State has had a choppy year so far, but they’ve been able to put together a couple of three-game win streaks. The Beavers hit a 3-6 skid in February, but they’ve bounced back with wins over California and Stanford in their last pair. 

In the 73-62 win over Stanford on Saturday, Oregon State’s Jarod Lucas put up 26 points with three rebounds and one assist. Ethan Thompson added 13 points with four rebounds and three assists, and Abdul Alatishe had 10 points with eight boards. 

Over on the Utah side, they’ve got a few big wins under their belt this season, but they’ve only been able to string together more than two straight victories once. After a four-game losing streak, the Utes were able to pull off a great win over USC in their last outing. 

In the 71-61 win over the Trojans, Utah’s Alfonso Plummer led the team with 19 points and three rebounds. Timmy Allen posted 15 points with eight assists and three boards, and Ian Martinez had 10 points with two rebounds. 

The Utes are 5-2 ATS in their last seven Wednesday games and 5-2 ATS in their last seven as an underdog. Utah is 1-5 ATS in their last six after an ATS win and the under is 7-3 in their last 10 Wednesday games. 

Meanwhile, Oregon State is 4-0 ATS in their last four road games and 6-0-1 ATS in their last seven after an ATS win. The Beavers are 6-0 ATS in their last six overall and the under is 5-2 in their last seven overall. 

PICK: I’m sticking with Oregon State. The last time these teams met up, the Beavers notched a 74-56 win, jumping out 30-24 at halftime and never looking back. Utah didn’t shoot especially well in that one, and they had a 29-36 rebound deficit with 20 turnovers. I like the Utes to play better in the rematch, but I still think the Beavers have a better shot at the cover.
