Why Bet on the Oregon State Beavers?

The Oregon State Beavers booked a spot in the NCAA Tournament after winning three straight games in the Pac-12 tournament. After an unbelievable run leading up to the most prestigious tournament in college basketball, they now find themselves stepping into the Elite Eight stage against a No. 2 seed team. The Beavers managed to come up with surprising wins, albeit finishing with tight scorelines.

Expect Ethan Thompson to step up in this NCAAB: Oregon State vs. Houston game. The Beavers guard is the biggest contributor to the team, averaging 15.8 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.8 assists with a 40.8 field goal percentage.

He is also consistent from the free-throw line, hitting 25 of 26 attempts. Furthermore, Oregon State locks down players from the 3-point line very well, limiting opponents to shoot only 29.8 percent shooting.

Why Bet on the Houston Cougars?

At the other end of the spectrum lies a robust Houston team and its outstanding defense. The team recently limited Syracuse to five 3-point shots made in 23 attempts and an underwhelming 46 points to move on to the Elite Eight. If they can repeat this performance, Houston should not have any major problems moving forward.

Houston will be relying on Quentin Grimes and his 3-point shooting. He has recorded at least four treys in eight of his last nine games for the Cougars.

The junior guard currently averages 18 points, 6 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per game with 41.1 percent field goal shooting. He is the heart of Houston’s offense. Furthermore, the team also has the upper hand in rebounding, boasting a +9.3 rebounding margin this season to top the AAC, while Oregon State is far behind at +1.1.
