I feel like such a Scrooge not backing the public darlings that Michigan has become.. I'm not sure on public %s but it seems everyone I talk to is picking Michigan. They certainly appear to have the face of a team of destiny. For as much as they are rolling, Oregon is equally as hot, winners of 12 of their last 15 with the two losses each by three points. Michigan hasn't really faced a team that had a player with the ability to single handedly take over a game. Oregon has one in Brooks, maybe even two the way Dorsey is playing. In recent games, nobody opposing Michigan had a player who could step up and stop the bleeding. Stop the barrage of wolverine three pointers. Get a bucket that was so timely and so crucial. Oregon has that. The loss of Boucher was a big one, but won't be as meaningful in this game. Oregon is very good at on the all defending. It won't be a frequent occurrence for Michigan to beat Oregon off the dribble and get to the lane.
This season, Oregon has seven games where they allowed their opponent to shoot 50%+. In the following games, Oregon is 7-0 outscoring opponents on average 81-61. They have limited their opponents to 35% shooting from the field and 28% shooting from three point land.
Michigan was favored by 2.5 over Oklahoma State and yet here they've been holding steady as one point favorites. Is that right? A 1.5 point delta between the Pokies and the Ducks. Again, public perception feels Michigan can't lose, which gets them favored, but it didn't move off 1 because Vegas was not going to dangle an attractive money line on Oregon and be exposed for a greater than invested payout. Michigan as a 1 point favorite is not an accurate depiction of where this line should be. I wouldn't be surprised to see Oregon -1 by tip

Laying off the other early start for now. I have vested interest in both teams. Gonzaga in a Calcutta with 4-1 payout on final four, 10-1 on finals and 14-1 to win it all. But have Country Roads to win it all in a bracket that's still standing. Will likely get involved at halftime
