Even though they are on the road. The team they are playing is Straight Garbage.
Thoughts on why this number has been bet down?

I can't make anything of it? Arizona should handle them it seems......

Oregon State is better than they have put on...they are at home...I originally picked Oregon State last night when the line was +10.5, but that thing has plummeted to -8 at most books. I actually took Arizona now -8 hoping for a sexy 9-10 point win.
I think Arizona wins the game, but I don't see them blowing away Oregon State at home. This is Arizona's first real test, Oregon is horrible and that game isn't much different than playing an Robert Morris, Northern Arizona, North Carolina State. In fact the only two real programs they have played they lost to BYU and Kansas.
Oregon state is 3-1 ats vs Arizona and I think they have a good shot at covering

Whatever. A tournament-worthy team gets out to a double-digit lead by the 2nd TV Timeout and never trails. I might add some Arizona ML again now that the price is getting better.
If Arizona loses this game, the Pac-10 could be a 1-bid league.

A typical outlook from someone who probably doesn't watch much Pac-10 ball. Washington, Washington State, USC, Arizona could all make runs in the Tourney. Oregon and Arizona state are horrible. Cal is OK. But Stanford and UCLA are going to beat some people this year.
Zona is gonna kill them. That white guy for OSU in the middle is a stiff.

Are you aware that when you posted this, the #1 team in the nation, Duke, barely had a 13 pt lead the half and only won by 11 pts and failed to cover by 8 pts? And spent the majority of the 2H in single digits?
I think they are a tournament-worthy team. They may have to win the ACC to get in though....
There's a reason for the line movement and last time I checked Oregon St. wasn't a very public NCAAB team...

Thank God Lakerboy taught me how to read line movement.
When a ML drops 3 dollars, and its not on a public team..... you know something is up.

Agree -- I took Oregon State +8 out of principle.

good call houlihans...definitely doubted that arizona would have lost this game, better yet not win it by a large margin, but this was definitely not the same team as in other games. Ridiculous and outrageous free throw shooting, coupled with terrible referee calls all game long certainly indicated something wasn't right with the game...thanks for the heads up ahead of the game, impressive to say the least. I underestimated and didn't think much of the line movement, but that's a real good follow on it

I said what I said about Oregon State, as in, the team that lost to D2 Seattle University 2 years in a row. Of course Duke didn't cover vs. Miami, the Hurricanes have covered the spread @ Cameron Indoor 3 years in a row.
I maintain that the Pac-10 is in serious trouble. When the #2 team in the league can't beat the #9 team on the road that does not bode well.
