Oregon Ducks Betting Preview
The Oregon Ducks (22-8, 14-15-1 ATS) responded to a five-game losing skid with six consecutive wins. During this positive stretch, Oregon beat Northwestern, Rutgers, Iowa, Wisconsin, USC, and Indiana. That losing streak was the longest of the season for the Ducks, but luckily, they did bounce back and now are playing well.

Oregon averages 76.6 PPG (109th) and allows 71.2 PPG (155th). The Ducks are 191st in rebounds (35.6) and 125th in assists (14.6). Jackson Shelstad leads the team with 13.6 PPG, 3.0 RPG, 2.6 APG, and 1.0 SPG. Nate Bittle follows him with 13.4 PPG, a team-high 7.1 RPG, and a team-high 2.2 BPG, while TJ Bamba chips in 10.2 PPG, 3.4 RPG, a team-high 2.9 APG, and a team-high 1.8 SPG.

The Washington Huskies (13-17, 14-15 ATS) are struggling over the last couple of months. The Huskies won just three games since January 3 and lost even 13! Washington is currently on a five-game losing skid after suffering losses to Rutgers, Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana, and USC. Washington is at the bottom of the Big Ten Standings with seven games behind Oregon.

Washington vs Oregon Prediction
Oregon won eight of the previous ten H2H encounters, including the last three. The Ducks were better in the first meeting of the season when it was 82-71. The Huskies lost six of the past seven home games, while the Ducks, who were on a four-game losing skid on the road, won the last two away from home. Washington has only covered the Spread in 13 of its last 30 games, while Oregon has covered the Spread in 9 of its previous 16 away games. I am going with Oregon to win and cover.
