After soaring to 83 points the game before, Michigan faltered in their matchup last Friday. They took a 73-57 bruising from the Red Raiders.
Meanwhile, the oddsmakers set the bar high, but Oregon and Alabama didn't disappoint and broke past the 160.5 point over/under on Saturday. The Ducks fell 99-91 to the Crimson Tide. Despite running the score up even higher than they did last Friday (82), Oregon still had to take the loss.
Oregon's defeat came about despite a quality game from Jermaine Couisnard, who scored 24 points along with 6 assists and 5 rebounds. Kario Oquendo was another key contributor, scoring 17 points along with 4 blocks.

Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as Michigan and Oregon are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Michigan hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 81.9 points per game. However, it's not like Oregon struggles in that department as they've been averaging 81.5 per game.
