Game Story: Austin Ota
In a final tuneup before the start of PAC-12 play, the Oregon Ducks battled against UC Riverside in a game that was not decided until the final minute. They rode an extremely efficient first half and successes in one-on-one defense in the second half to a 71-65 victory.
The night started extremely hot for the Ducks, as they began the contest without a miss for the first eight minutes of the game. Both teams finished the first half shooting above 60 percent from the field, yet the five point Oregon lead at the half was due to Oregon shooting 55 percent from three in the first half. This was highlighted by both guard De’Vion Harmon and forward Quincy Guerrier hitting two big deep range shots a piece. A key component to the Ducks first half success was their ability to stay out of foul trouble, as they only committed three fouls as a team, not allowing the Highlanders to shoot a free throw. They finished the first half ahead…

Story: Ducks Dismantle Grizzlies, Get Back on Track
With only two games to go before conference play, the Ducks rode a hot shooting night to a big win over a solid Montana team.
Story: Austin Ota
It would be fair to say that the Ducks needed a night like tonight, as they rode their best shooting night of the season to their biggest win so far. With that said, the night began on a slightly worrisome note for Oregon, as Montana guard Robby Beasley pulled up from long range and drilled his first three pointer, followed by Lonnell Martin receiving the feed from Cameron Parker and hitting the Grizzlies second consecutive three. On the offensive end, Oregon attempted to run their offense early through their clear size advantage. In starting 6’11” junior N’Faly Dante, the Ducks committed early to feeding the post and allowing the offense to work around it. However, Dante at times seemed lost down low and was unable to escape the instant double teaming of the two Montana forwards, Josh Bannan and Mack…

Read MoreSTORY: Oregon Bounces Back With Pac-12 North Clinching Win vs Oregon State
Written Story by Justin Grossweiner
Oregon Football found a way to bounce back to win against Oregon State 38-29 at home following a season-altering loss to Utah last weekend. Oregon is no longer a player for the College Football Playoff, but a victory over Oregon State clinches the Pac-12 North for the Ducks, and secures themselves a place in the Pac-12 Championship game Friday, December 3rd. Oregon got the momentum going in their favor right away, and after receiving the opening kickoff they moved down the field to score on a Travis Dye touchdown from 20 yards out following a 9 play 4:07 minute drive. Oregon scored on their first 4 possessions, carrying a 24-3 lead into halftime.
Oregon State pulled within 15 within the first 5 minutes of the 3rd quarter following a touchdown pass by Chance Nolan to tight end Lance Musgrave and a missed two-point conversion. The Beavers missed 3 two-point conversions on the afternoon, and after missing their initial two-point…
