Oregon

Ducks (1-4-8-8) VS Cornhuskers (5-0-16-0)

January 13, 2026 | 9:00 PM ET | Pinnacle Bank Arena, Lincoln, Nebraska

Nebraska
Moneyline Pick - Nebraska Cornhuskers (-750): B
Nebraska’s 16-0 start, 10-0 home record at Pinnacle Bank Arena, and 10-0 run over its last 10 games make the Huskers the justified moneyline side against an Oregon squad that is just 8-8 overall, 1-4 in the Big Ten, and riding a two-game losing streak.([espn.com](https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/preview/_/gameId/401825440)) With junior point guard Jackson Shelstad sidelined by a hand injury, the Ducks are down their primary ball-handler and 15.6-point scorer, further tilting the matchup toward a Nebraska team led by Rienk Mast and Pryce Sandfort, plus Jamarques Lawrence coming off a 27-point eruption at Indiana.([cbssports.com](https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/gametracker/preview/NCAAB_20260113_OREG%40NEB/)) Nebraska’s efficient offense (81.2 points per game) and strong three-point profile at home, combined with Oregon’s uneven late-game execution, support laying the steep juice on the Cornhuskers’ moneyline, though the limited payout keeps this recommendation at a B rather than an A.([cbssports.com](https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/gametracker/preview/NCAAB_20260113_OREG%40NEB/)) Odds and availability are subject to change.

Over/Under Pick - Over 146.5, (-107): B-
Oregon’s 76.7 points per game and tendency to give up runs, paired with Nebraska’s 81.2-point offense and 10.6 made threes per night, point toward a higher-scoring game than the 146.5 total suggests.([espn.com](https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/preview/_/gameId/401825440)) The Huskers have averaged 77.3 points over their last 10 while holding foes to 63.8, but Oregon’s combination of Nathan Bittle inside and versatile forwards like Kwame Evans Jr. has still produced 77.7 points per game over its last 10 outings, even as the Ducks have gone just 4-6 in that span.([espn.com](https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/preview/_/gameId/401825440)) With Nebraska a double-digit favorite at home and the market total sitting in the mid‑140s with modest juice to the Over, there is room for late scoring or extended garbage time to push this past 146.5, though Nebraska’s capable defense tempers confidence and keeps the Over to a B‑ grade.([foxsports.com](https://www.foxsports.com/articles/college-basketball/nebraska-vs-oregon-prediction-how-to-watch-odds-channel-jan-13?utm_source=openai)) Odds and availability are subject to change.

Spread Pick - Nebraska Cornhuskers, -10.5 (-111): B
Rienk Mast and Nebraska’s balanced offense, which owns a +15.5 scoring margin (81.2 scored vs. 65.7 allowed), are well-positioned to cover the -10.5 spread at home against an Oregon team that has been outscoring opponents by only 3.4 points per game and has dropped two straight, including a 10-point home loss to Ohio State.([espn.com](https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/preview/_/gameId/401825440)) With Shelstad’s hand injury removing Oregon’s primary creator, the Ducks are more turnover-prone and reliant on Bittle post‑ups and Evans’ mismatch scoring, a risky formula against a Nebraska group that shares the ball (18.1 assists per game) and can bury teams with waves of perimeter shooting.([cbssports.com](https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/gametracker/preview/NCAAB_20260113_OREG%40NEB/)) The Huskers’ 20-game overall winning streak dating back to last spring, plus their perfect home mark and top‑10 national ranking, suggest they have both the firepower and composure to stretch a late lead beyond the number, giving Nebraska -10.5 a B grade for combining solid win probability with better value than the moneyline.([cbssports.com](https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/gametracker/preview/NCAAB_20260113_OREG%40NEB/)) Odds and availability are subject to change.
