The Oregon Ducks hit the road for a rematch with the UCLA Bruins on Thursday at Pauley Pavilion. The Ducks lost their last time out at Minnesota, 77-69, but the over still did cash. The total has ended up going 3 of the past 4 games, and the total has gone over in 5 of the past 7 outings as well. These former Pac-12 combatants, now members of the Big Ten, last met on December 8 in Eugene. The Bruins came away with a 73-71 win as a 3.5-point underdog while the over comfortably cashed. Oregon has managed 77.9 points per game, and the Ducks are hitting 75.5 percent from the free-throw line, which is crucial for over bettors as well. Oregon doesn’t leave a lot of points on the floor, which bodes well for the over in Thursday’s contest.
For the Bruins, they’ve picked up four consecutive victories, going for 82 or more points in three of those wins. The over has cashed in six of the past seven outings, as UCLA has also allowed 70 or more points in 6 of the past 7 outings. In this series, the over has cashed in each of the past 3 meetings since Feb. 3, 2024, when the teams were competing in the Pac-12. UCLA is a strong defensive team, allowing just 65.1 points per game, but the Bruins are allowing teams to hit 43 percent from the field, and 33 percent from behind the 3-point line. Let’s back the over in Los Angeles on Thursday.
