Oklahoma City to Phoenix

Current records: Oklahoma City 11-19; Phoenix 25-5

What there is to know

The Oklahoma City Thunder could have tired legs after a game yesterday as they head to the road against the Phoenix Suns at 9 p.m. ET on December 23 at the Footprint Center. If the contest looks like Phoenix’s 123-120 victory when they last met in May, the scorer will be very busy.

The Thunder were expected to lose to the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday, but instead they received a cute Christmas stocking. The stars were shining for Oklahoma City in a 108-94 victory over Denver. It was another big night for Oklahoma City shooting guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who clocked a triple-double with 27 points, 12 dimes and 11 rebounds. This is Gilgeous-Alexander’s first triple-double of the season.

Meanwhile, the stars were shining for Phoenix in a 108-90 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. The Suns’ success was led by the efforts of shooter Devin Booker, who shot 6 for 11 from beyond the arc and finished with 24 points, seven assists and nine boards, and center Deandre Ayton, who has dropped a double-double on 19 points and 11 boards. It’s been four straight games in which Ayton has taken at least ten rebounds.

The Thunder need to know they’re going to fight an uphill battle given the 15-point gap they face. They are currently four-to-four ATS in their most recent games, however, a trend that punters might want to consider.

Oklahoma City is now 11-19 while Phoenix is ​​25-5. A few offensive numbers to keep in mind before kick-off: Oklahoma City are stumbling into the game with the fewest points per game in the league, accumulating just 99.5 points on average. The Suns’ offense has more to brag about, as they rank first in the league when it comes to field goal percentage, at 47.70% this season. The cards are therefore definitely stacked in their favor.

Game No. 8 vs. No. 9 in the West Region of this year’s NCAA Men’s Tournament features a fun battle between Mountain West champion Boise State and AAC runner-up Memphis.

How to watch the first-round game between No. 8 Boise State and No. 9 Memphis:

Game date: Thursday, March 17, 2022

Game time: 1:45 p.m. ET

TV: DTT

The Broncos and Tigers open Thursday’s games in Portland, ahead of Gonzaga-Georgia State, Saint Mary’s vs. Wyoming or Indiana, and UCLA-Akron.

Boise State rebounded from a turbulent November, in which it lost four of its first seven games, to finish 27–7 with a 15–3 record in Mountain West play. The program eliminated Nevada, Wyoming and San Diego State on consecutive days to win the conference title.

Memphis didn’t start the season well, dropping games to lowly Georgia and Ole Miss in non-conference games, and Tulane, UCF, ECU and SMU at the start of the AAC schedule. Penny Hardaway’s team found their way in late January and had 10 wins in their last 11 conference games, and beat UCF and SMU in the AAC tournament before falling to Houston in the conference title game.

The winner of Thursday’s game will face the winner of No. 1 Gonzaga and No. 16 Georgia State.

through 3 quarters

The Oregon State Beavers were expected to take an “L” in this one, but so far that doesn’t play out in the script. After three quarters, it increasingly looks like their powerful offense is too much for the USC Trojans as the Beavers lead 35-17. Oregon State capitalized on the performance of QB Chance Nolan, who had four touchdowns and 213 yards on 17 attempts in addition to picking up 47 rushing yards.

Oregon State and USC entered this game with wins in previous games. We’ll see if the state of Oregon can maintain its lead to secure another victory and undo the positive energy from USC.

What there is to know

The USC Trojans and Oregon State Beavers will face off in a Pac-12 showdown at 10:30 p.m. ET on September 25 at United Airlines Field in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. After these two teams get rid of their previous opponents, one of them is about to suffer a disheartening setback.

USC won their game against the Washington State Cougars last week by a concluding score of 45-14. The fight was almost over by the end of the third, by which time the Trojans had established a 35-14 advantage. WR Drake London was the offensive star of the game for USC, catching 13 passes for two touchdowns and 170 yards.

The USC defense was also there, as it tallied two interceptions and two fumbles. The choices came courtesy of S Calen Bullock and CB Jayden Williams.

Meanwhile, Oregon State kept their clean sheet against the Idaho Vandals last week and reduced Game 42 to zero. The game was pretty much decided at half-time, when the score was already 28 to zero.

USC are the favorites in this one, with an expected margin of victory of 11 points. They’ve been consistent cash generators against the spread when favored (2-0), so they could be worth a quick bet.

The victories brought the two teams to an identical 2-1. A pair of defensive numbers to keep in mind before kick-off: The Trojans enter the competition with the 169th most passing yards allowed per game in the country, after allowing 240.7 on average . The Beavers have had their own passing struggles as they are 187th worst in the country in passing yards allowed per game, averaging 254.3. It’s possible that one of those Achilles’ heels will end up tripping the losing team.

Many say the New England Patriots have started to change their season. They beat the New York Jets well last weekend, but the Jets stink and their quarterback missed most of the game, and it was at home, and they had faced them earlier in the season. . So, was this a real turning point?

This was not the case. I answered the question for you. Week 8 against the Los Angeles Chargers is the game most will judge the Patriots in. Los Angeles is under a new lease of life, with a talented team, a great young quarterback, and this game is on the road. Can New England continue to roll on this new positive dynamic?

The No. 9 UCLA Bruins will be aiming for their second straight win when they hit the road to face the Utah Utes on Thursday night.

UCLA (11-2, 3-1 Pac-12) has won three of four games since returning to the floor after a lengthy COVID-19 hiatus, and they are coming off an 81-65 home loss to the Oregon State Beavers. The Bruins rank in the top 20 in adjusted offensive and defensive efficiency. Their top scorer is Johnny Juzang, who averages 17.2 points per game.

Utah (8-10, 1-7 Pac-12) is bottom of the conference, and they’ll be looking to avoid their seventh straight loss. The Utes haven’t won since beating the Fresno State Bulldogs on Dec. 21, and they rank outside the top 100 overall in KenPom. Branden Carlson is the team’s top scorer but remains injured.

The choice

UCLA-9.5

The Utes will be playing their first home game since Jan. 8, so it’s tough to bet against a team with such a point spread at home, but UCLA is pretty good at covering that number. Utah is really struggling defensively, and the Bruins will take advantage and exit this game with a double-digit win.
