(3% play) OREGON STATE +2.5 (vs. Utah) - 11:00 pm ET (espn2) #778
Utah was mired in a 1-3 SU slump going into their earlier home meeting against Oregon State. The Utes won that game 59-53 and they haven’t lost since, going a perfect 5-0 SU over their last five games. Utah needed a big comeback in that game as they trailed Oregon State by 14 points on their home court. The game was also tied at 52 apiece with just three minutes left to play before Utah ended the game on a 7-1 scoring run. Utah will now face Oregon State on the road where they are just 3-3 SU in true road games this season with one win coming by 5 points in overtime and another win coming by just 2 points. Utah’s offense is only averaging 67.3 points per game on 44.2% shooting from the field and 33% shooting from three-point land on the road this season.
Oregon State returns home off back-to-back road losses at Arizona and at Arizona State. Off those two losses, we expect a strong performance here, especially since Oregon State is 8-3 SU on their home court this season; two of their home losses have come by just 6 points apiece. Oregon State’s offense is averaging 75.4 points per game on 45% shooting from the field at home this season. The Beavers’ defense is only giving up 68.7 points per game on 39.8% shooting from the field and 30.2% shooting from three-point land at home this season. We’ll back Oregon State in this game on Thursday night.
