Wednesday, March 8's NCAA college basketball lineup includes a first-round Pac-12 Tournament tilt between the Arizona State Sun Devils and Oregon State Beavers.

Arizona State aims to turn things around after a 68-55 loss to USC handed it the second of back-to-back losses to close the regular season. Meanwhile, Oregon State has a pep in its step following a 69-66 win over California that saw Glenn Taylor Jr. finish with a team-high 28 points off the bench.

Will Arizona State successfully bounce back tonight? Or does Oregon State have what it takes to advance to the second round?

Arizona State vs Oregon State Prediction & Pick

Although Oregon State won its last outing, that victory came against a Cal team at the bottom of the Pac-12 with a 2-18 record. Even ignoring who they just defeated, the Beavers have still lost 14 of their last 18 games and haven't recorded back-to-back wins since December.

At the end of the day, Oregon State just isn't a threat. It only averages 60.6 PPG (seventh-worst in the country) while shooting 40.8% from the floor (No. 329). With the Sun Devils averaging 37.3 rebounds (No. 42), they'll take advantage of the Beavers' mistakes.

Arizona State may have back-to-back losses, but those came against USC and UCLA — two of the conference's top-three teams. The Sun Devils have also beaten the Beavers twice this campaign, outscoring their rivals by an average margin of eight points.

Final Score Prediction: Arizona State: 74 | Oregon State: 65

Arizona State vs Oregon State Best Bet

For tonight's best bet, I recommend backing the total going over 130.5 points. For starters, 12 of the last 14 Arizona State-Oregon State matchups have gone over that total. Secondly, the over is 4-1 in the Beavers' last five games while being 13-7 in the Sun Devils' last 20.

With a trip to the second round on the line, expect both sides to step up with more offense than expected.

Bet: Over 130.5 Points (-110)
