Sunday’s college basketball slate includes an interesting matchup between the California Golden Bears (12-4) and the Oregon Ducks (11-4).
California is on the road but that hasn’t stopped the Las Vegas odds makers from putting them as a 1-point favorite.
The Golden Bears were originally 2-point favorites but have been bet down a tick, while the total sits at 136.5 after debuting at 139.
California has covered the spread odds in 9 of their last 12 head-to-head meetings with Oregon, and this has been a series dominated by the road team with the visitor covering in 6 of the last 8 clashes.
The Golden Bears were a 81-71 winner in the most recent meeting, while Oregon lost 77-85 the last time this showdown was hosted by the Ducks.
The over has also been a winning bet lately, sweeping in all 3 of the last 3 games between these squads.

Oregon has won outright in 4 of their last 5 games heading into Sunday’s action, and they’ve managed to cover the odds in 2 of their last 3.
This is a team that has their offense working effectively, and the Ducks have gone over the total in 2 of those 3 games.
An interesting note to parlay bettors is that Oregon seems to go over the total when covering the point spread, while going under when they fail to do so.
California lost against Oregon State most recently but has had a solid season.
Despite their victories, they have covered the odds in just 1 of their last 4 games this season while going over the total in 3 of those 4.
Oregon has a near-perfect 9-1 record when playing on their home court, while California is winless at 0-3 on the road.
