Utah Utes vs Oregon State Beavers. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Utah Utes. Utah continued its excellent play after a difficult run of contests against Oregon, UCLA, and USC, easily defeating Washington and Washington State.

Since Oregon State is a club the Utes already defeated by 19 points this season, anticipate them to perform similarly to how they did in prior contests there.

OSU scores fewer than 64 points per game on 43.1 percent shooting, placing them 251st in the nation for offensive efficiency.

The Utes’ defense, which is ranked 24th in modified defensive efficiency, will make it difficult for the Beavers to score.

Eight of their 10 Pac-12 opponents were kept to under 70 points, with USC (71) and Arizona being the only exceptions (81).
