Against the Spread (ATS)
OREGON (- 11.5, - 115) is favored at home, looking to win for the second time in as many outings. The Ducks opened with a 71-57 win vs. the Fresno State Bulldogs Tuesday, but failed to cover by just a half point at most shops.
Boise State (+11.5, -106) faces its first real test in a tough environment on the road against a top team. It's hard to gauge what we'll get from the Broncos after its opening-game win. The Broncos are picked to be middle of the road in the Mountain West, so don't expect much in a battle against a top Pac-12 club.
Over/Under (O/U)
The OVER 137.5 ( -115) is a nice play based on what we saw from the Ducks in their opener against an MWC team, as they rebounded nicely, were solid on free throws, etc. … The Ducks were just 1-for-13 from behind the arc, so you have to figure they'll be better in that department, too, which will help the over.
