Two talented but struggling teams meet in Big Ten play on Sunday night when the Rutgers Scarlet Knights (12-13, 2-5 away, 5-9 Big Ten, 11-12-2 ATS) visit the Oregon Ducks (17-8, 9-4 home, 6-8 Big Ten, 10-15 ATS) at Matthew Knight Arena in Eugene at 4:00 pm PT/7:00 pm ET. The Ducks, who were ranked as high as #13 less than a month ago, have tumbled out of the top 25 thanks to a 1-5 SU record in their last six. But Dana Altman’s team is nonetheless a big home favorite over the extremely talented but extremely young Scarlet Knights on Sunday.

Scarlet Knight teammates Ace Bailey (19.1 PPG, 7.6 RPG, 1.2 APG) and Dylan Harper (18.8 PPG, 4.7 RPG, 4.1 APG) both have point totals of 18.5, which is four points higher than any Oregon player and 11 points higher than anyone else on Rutgers.

Jackson Shelstad (13.4 PPG, 3.0 RPG, 2.8 APG) has the highest point total on the extremely-well-balanced Ducks. All five Oregon starters are averaging between 9.5 and 13.4 points per game this season, and all are listed between 11.5 and 14.5 points in today’s player props.

Rutgers vs Oregon Predictions & Picks

Oregon’s drop off has been as swift as it was unexpected. The Ducks, who were rated 29th at KenPom entering the season, started the year 16-3 with all three setbacks coming against teams inside KenPom’s top 25 (72-71 vs #25 UCLA, 109-77 vs #20 Illinois, 65-58 vs #10 Purdue).

The good news for Oregon is that, during their five-game losing streak from Jan. 25 to Feb. 8, they only dropped one game in Eugene. The other four losses were all in true road games, and four of the five setbacks came by single-digits.

Oregon finally snapped that skid last time out with an 81-75 home victory over #57 Northwestern, led by a game-high 26 points from Shelstad.

Rutgers, meanwhile, has lost two straight and five of its last seven, including a 1-2 mark on the road. The Scarlet Knights picked up just their second road win of the season at Northwestern on Jan. 29 (79-72) but couldn’t make it two straight on the road when they fell 90-81 at Maryland on Feb. 5, pushing as nine-point underdogs.

I’m not prepared to lay the full seven with the Ducks, but I have no interest in the Rutgers moneyline either. Oregon is a better team than their recent five-game losing streak would suggest. They are deep, well-coached, and filled with senior leadership. Rutgers may have two of the players listed in the odds to go first overall in the 2025 NBA Draft odds (Bailey and Harper) but there’s little behind them on the roster, and it’s been a huge issue all year.

Flying across the country for a game in Eugene, Steve Pikiell’s lack of depth is going to bite him again.

• Oregon -4.5 (-166) at DraftKings
• Shelstad over 14.5 points (-115) at bet365
