Missouri Tigers vs Oregon Ducks Point Spread Picks

This is a neutral site game in Nebraska. No. 21 Oregon went 24-7 last year, consistently ranked in the AP Top 25 Poll for every week, and plays its opener here. Coach Dana Altman has a deep, veteran squad anchored by guards Will Richardson and Chris Duarte, plus they are loaded with wing players. Missouri has one game under its belt, a victory over Oral Roberts. But this team had a losing record last year when they shot just 29.7-percent from behind the arc. The first three times they faced Top 25 teams last year they lost them all to Xavier, Kentucky (71-59), and West Virginia (74-51). They've finished below .500 in consecutive seasons since 2018-19, so take Oregon to win the game. Play Oregon on the moneyline.
