NCAAB Odds: Washington +2
The Oregon State Beavers will meet up with the Washington Huskies in the Pac 12 Tournament in Las Vegas, NV. The Beavers finished as the #10 seed in the Pac-12 tourney following a (7–11) conference record and a (15–15) overall record to finish to the season. Washington is the #7 seed after a (10–8) mark in conference play as part of their (20–11) overall record this season.
Tres Tinkle led the Beavers with 18 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game this season. Tinkle is one of four players that averaged double digits and as a team, the Beavers averaged 74.1 PPG. The Beavers really struggled on the road this season going just (1–9) away from home this season compared to (12–4) at home. Oregon State was (12–18 ATS) on the season.
Washington has been a nice surprise this season winning 20 games after losing Markelle Fultz to the #1 pick in the draft. The Huskies have a couple of signature wins this season including Kansas and Arizona. Washington closed out the year winning 3 of their last 5 but fell to Oregon in their regular-season finale. Jaylen Nowell led the team with 16.0 PPG followed by Noah Dickerson who averaged 15.4 PPG and 8.4 RPG. As a team, Washington is scoring 74.5 points while allowing 72.7 PPG on the defensive end.
Oddsmakers have the Beavers favored by -2 points which is surprising and I think the wrong team is favored in this matchup. Washington is 5–1–1 ATS in their last 7 games following a loss and 6–2 ATS in their last 8 neutral site games while Oregon State is 2–7 ATS in the last 9 meetings between these two teams. I like Washington’s team and feel they have the clear advantage on both ends of the court and they have the signature wins to prove it. Take the points and back Washington as this is a gift from Vegas.
Oregon St vs Washington Pick: Washington +2
