Oregon betting line jumps for game against Rutgers, drops for national title

Related Topics: Oregon

Oregon opened as a 15.5-point favorite over Rutgers, but the betting line has climbed to -17.5 by Tuesday.

While oddsmakers predict a big win for the Ducks, their national championship odds have dropped to +1000 at BETMGM, their lowest since the preseason. The Ducks trail Ohio State, Alabama, Miami and Indiana as national title contenders, tied with the Georgia Bulldogs.

The MoneyLine stands at Oregon -900, Rutgers +550. The over/under is 60.5, up a point from the open.

Saturday's 30-20 loss to Indiana in Autzen Stadium exposed some flaws in the Ducks offensive plan, particularly their ability to score against elite defenses.
