Here's what you need to know about the latest odds for the Wisconsin vs. Oregon NIT quarterfinal game from Eugene, Oregon, including the spread, money line and over/under point total. All odds below are according to Tipico Sports, the exclusive sports betting and iGaming provider for USA Today Sports.
What is the point spread for the Wisconsin vs. Oregon game?
Oregon (21-14) is a 2.5-point favorite over Wisconsin (19-14).
Despite a depleted roster, the Ducks have easily covered in their first two NIT games, winning both by double digits. But the 2.5-point spread is the lowest of the tournament for Oregon.
Oregon playing at home where it is 15-5 gives them the slightest edge in Vegas' eyes. Plus, Wisconsin hasn't won three straight games in well over two months and is an under .500 team overall on the road (5-6).
Wisconsin had been favorites in its first two NIT games and covered the spread in both contests. It breezed past Bradley last week, 81-62, in the first round and squeaked out the win and cover (2.5-point spread) against Liberty, 75-71, on Sunday.
What is the money line for the Wisconsin vs. Oregon game?
Oregon is -155 (a $155 bet would net you $100). Wisconsin is +122 (a $100 bet gets you $122)
What is the over/under point total?
The over/under point total is 131.5.
Oregon averages 71.0 points per game, while Wisconsin is averaging 65.7. The Badgers have outperformed their season average in the first two tournament games.
The Badgers allow 64.0 points per game, while Oregon gives up slightly more at 66.4.
What does the injury report look like for Wisconsin and Oregon?
Wisconsin doesn't have any injuries of note, while Oregon has three players questionable for the game, including their top three scorers (N'Faly Dante, Jermaine Couisnard and Will Richardson). All three have missed the Ducks' first two NIT games.
