Stephen F. Austin vs. Oregon CBB Prediction:
Through 10 games, Stephen F. Austin has one of the worst offenses in the country. The Lumberjacks are 356th in offensive efficiency, 288th in field goal percentage, 348th in true shooting percentage, and 320th in effective field goal percentage this season. Stephen F. Austin is scoring an average of 59.0 points per game, which ranks 359th in the nation. They are almost certainly going to have trouble scoring on Sunday night.
Oregon is coming off of a loss in their last game. The Ducks dropped a home contest to UCLA last Sunday 73-71. It was Oregon’s first loss of the season and may be indicative of how good UCLA is this year, as the Bruins just beat Arizona on Saturday. Oregon has a full week to prepare for this game, and that should work to their advantage.
The Ducks are averaging 79.0 points per game this season which is a full 20 points more than what the Lumberjacks are averaging in 2024. I think Oregon takes out their frustrations on a lesser opponent on Sunday night. I’m laying the points with the Ducks at home in this one.
