This is an 8* play on the UNDER between Rhode Island and Oregon.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based on a few different factors:

As note that Rhode Island has seen the total go UNDER the number in seven of ten this year against good offensive tams which average 77-plus points per contest, while Oregon has seen the total go UNDER in ten of 17 this year after scoring 80 points or more.

The bottom line: Rhode Island upset Creighton 84-72 on Friday, while Oregon rolled to a 93-77 stomping of Iona earlier the same day. The Rams have now won nine straight. Rhode Island averages just 73.8 PPG, but makes up for it on the defensive end in allowing just 65.2 per contest. Oregon averages 79.5 PPG and allows just 65.4. These are two decent offenses going up against a couple of great defenses. All signs point to the UNDER as the savvy move in this matchup.
