So far, the Michigan Wolverines have been a force of nature with the College Basketball odds. The Wolverines are battling with the Nebraska Cornhuskers and Purdue Boilermakers in the Big Ten Conference race. Additionally, the Maize and Blue is fighting for the top national ranking with the Arizona Wildcats. On Saturday, the Wolverines make a long road trip to face a faded power.
Once upon a time, the Oregon Ducks were regulars in the NCAA Tournament. Oregon appeared in five consecutive tournaments from 2013 through 2017, including a Final Four appearance in 2017. Since then, the pickings have been slimmer, with just four Big Dance invites and second-round eliminations in the past two years. Now, Oregon is battling for its NCAA Tournament survival as the ultimate bubble team.
