Oregon vs. Stanford CBB Prediction:
This game will be played in San Jose, so it’s officially a neutral-site contest. Stanford’s campus is only 27 minutes by car away from San Jose, so the Cardinal will likely have a slight homecourt advantage on Saturday night. Stanford has been good in those spots over the past few years. The Cardinal are 14-10-1 ATS in neutral-site games since the start of the 2020 season. A few other numbers bolster the case for Stanford in this contest.
The Cardinal are 11-9 ATS in non-conference games and 13-8 ATS when playing on 2 or 3 days of rest since the start of last season. Perhaps most importantly, Stanford is 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 games against Oregon. The public is backing the Ducks in this contest, but I’m not. I’m taking Stanford and the points in San Jose on Saturday night.
