Oregon padded their stats early vs a lightweight schedule, then caught the unsuspecting Washington teams napping around the New Year. The Ducks are now showing their true colors as they are in the midst of a 5 game slide. We don't see them snapping out of it here. Oregon is a mere 6-22 ATS following a SU loss, 6-20-1 ATS on Thursdays, and a poor 1-9 SU in this series. The Ducks are defensively soft, and when their shots don't fall, big trouble ensues. The young Bruins have gradually built momentum (6-3 SU run) after a 3-7 SU start. Their defense and shot selection has improved over their winning stretch; consequently, we'll look for the Bruins to continue to disrupt the Ducks who continue to blame each other for repeated mistakes. UCLA is a sweet 21-8 ATS following 3 or more home games and we'll grab the points here.
