JD Yonke writes: “It hasn’t been the case this season, but the Ducks have typically been a tough matchup for Cronin. Altman had won four straight over Cronin in this series before two single-digit Bruins victories this season. UCLA rallied for a victory without Clark against Colorado, but that game was very close throughout until the Bruins pulled away late, and the Ducks are better than the Buffaloes. I’ll take Oregon to keep this one within the spread.”

Dimers: UCLA 69, Oregon 65
It writes: “Dimers.com’s predicted final score for Oregon vs. UCLA at T-Mobile Arena this Friday has UCLA winning 69-65.”
Chris King writes: “Oregon nearly blew a 19-point lead against Washington State before rallying to earn the win Thursday. The Ducks won’t be as fortunate against a UCLA team that already beat them twice this season. Losing Clark is a big blow for UCLA but Bailey stepped up and carried the team against Colorado Thursday. It won’t be easy for the Bruins but they are extremely tough on the defensive end of the floor. That could make it daunting for Oregon to find good shots on the offensive end of the floor. Seeing how the Bruins own two wins over the Ducks already and they showed their grit by taking control of the game against Colorado in the final five minutes, you have to give them the upper hand here.”
