Yes, keeps Riley in LA a bit longer.

Sir, you seem to be lost.

Horrible horrible shooting once again. Oregon has one shooter who is above average behind the 3point line which is Shelsted, that is pathetic, absolutely pathetic, and that's on Altman not recruiting players who can shoot the ball reliably. I know I'm a broken record, but I just don't understand how you don't see that when you have a point guard like Shelsted and big man like Bittle, you have to surround them with snipers from the outside, not a bunch of slashers. We don't have one guy who is just a dead eye from outside. If I were an opponent I would sag off everyone other than Shelsted and make Oregon shoot 25 to 30 3s because it looks like this might be Altman's worst shooting team ever. It is early, but we don't hit open shots, it's not like all of these 3s are contested. Our defense will be decent, but to win we'll need to convert that D into fast break points and we'll have rebound better on the defensive glass. I do think we have the potential to be a better rebounding team than last year. I really hope I'll eat my words, but it doesn't look good. I like Stewart, that guy needs to start. I would play a big lineup with Evans at the 3.

Ducks get 18 more points on free throws. Rice gets 14 more points on field goals. That's the 67-63 difference. That margin on free throws reminds of watching Lute Olson harass the refs at games in Tucson.

Final - USC 38, Northwestern 17. Are you happy now? No. 😧

Great post, Doctor. We heard a lot of the same coming out of Columbus when Dan purposely put 12 defenders on the field late in the game. I agree with you; this tactic should not be allowed. 🤬 Then again, shouldn't the smarties from Northwestern have spotted this move? 🤔 SC 35 NW 17 with 6 minutes left in the 4th Q. 7-2 SC can now sit back and watch its next two opponents pound one another in 'perfect' Midwest November weather. For OBD, I'm hoping this will be a November game to remember, beginning with a joyous plane ride back to the Pacific time zone, with the final three games of the regular season being played in the Pacific Northwest. Go Ducks! - Hand Kirk his 90th Big Ten loss. 😁

Ducks win 67-63! Not pretty, and the hold-overs lead the way....Shelstad, Bittle and Evans. We generated a ton of fouls in the second half and got a lot at the line. Not quite ready for Prime-Time!

Talk about a shooting slump. Lin is now 1 for his last 18 shots. Yikes!!!

54-49 Oregon with five minutes left. Anybody's game...

It’s a move that I might save for a championship game. Leave it to Riley to burn it against Northwestern.

U$C 35 NW 17. 4th Quarter 11 minutes left. NW to receive kick off

35-17 USC.

23-20 OT Ducks 1 TO 0 sacks 205 pass yds

Please...GIVE US A SCORE!

At the halfway point in the second half....Oregon leads 46-40 with ten minutes left. Defense is starting to kick in, and as noted earlier--the outside shooting is improving.

Convert 3rd downs. Seem too many 3 and outs. Score early and make IA play from behind.

They are on fire now! FG% up to 31% 😂 Ducks lead 40-38. 11:49 left

Oregon 20-17 1 1 163 🦆 hope the weather isn't terrible

28 10 ducks 2 2 254

WOW!! U$C is run defense porous! Oregon is going to break 300 on them....right up the middle. I hope $C wins and has a nice ranking for us to add to our resume

Establish run game the turn Dante lose. Play to our strengths but get the ball in the air more then we have.

21-14 USC. It should probably be 21-14 NW since they fumbled an interception return out of the end zone. Number 6 for USC is a playmaker. He’s a problem for defenses.

32-27, Rice Owls at half. Whew!

Oregon down 5 at half. Shot 26% from the floor in the first half. They were in the bonus at 10 minutes left in the half but failed to take advantage. Lists of threes and contested jumpers.

Gentlemen...I am watching the Oregon BBALL game. Give us scores and action please....
