Why is Oregon a 10 point favorite

[wyzguy88]

Look, I know Oregon St is on a 17 game losing streak. But it's a rivalry game, Oregan isn't that great. I want to take Oregon, but am really struggling on figuing out why the spread is so high

agreed...I'd lay off it

There are other games available tonight.

I'm liking Oregon St here.

Because Ore St. consistently gets blown out at home by 15-20 every game and they are 0-15 in the conf. Its a tough call.

they have lost their last 4 ats and 3 of the 4 have been double digit spreads.
the game w/ucla was 27 1/2. this team hasnt scored 60 points in their last 5 games. ore shoots 15% better than state from the field and from from the 3 pt line. i know usually with rivalry games you can throw all of this out the window, but state is just a pitiful team.

My opinion on the game is that I am taking Oregon -10. Yes it is a rivarly game this Oregon St seems to be very unmotivated when they get behind. They are not defending on defense letting teams shoot 50% from 2pt range and 44% from 3pt range over their last 5 games. Oregon on the other hand is shooting 48% from 2pt range and 45% from 3 point range. I don't think that this game is close but my bigger play of the night is Oregon -6!

Just my insights! Good luck on what you decided.

how is 10 high? lol, have you even seen Oregon St play? they are TERRIBLE. i am not saying Org is going to cover (although i think they probably do even thou i am laying off) but this line is in NO WAY high!

[cosmojr]

I'd be careful on this one... line opened at 11 (which, like Morris, I agree is not too high)... JQP is all over Ore, but the line is down to 10???

Either a trap, or the squares are on Ore, and the big pops are going on OSU

A good one to lay off, IMO

gl to all

Oregon beat Oregon St at home on Feb. 2 by 16 points (79-63) and now they go to Oregon St. Given home court advantage is 4 points, the line is about right.
