The last time Oregon beat No.3 and No.5 on the road in the same weekend, or season, was...Never. I've never thought much about USC basketball. UCLA is basketball, USC is football. Evan Mobley, POTY last year is gone from the Trojans, but his brother, Isaiah, one of 4 Trojans to average in double figures, is back.

Thanks, fixed now.

The Ducks go for a sweep in LA against USC tonight.

I hadn't even mentioned how big Bill was there! Say what you will, despite him being a legendary basketball player, he is without ego about his accomplishments. At UCLA, as a Portland Trail Blazer it's always about his teammates, this also comes through on his broadcasts, every player is having "the greatest game of his career!"

That team was so good. Brooks, Tyler Dorsey, Dylan Ennis. Not there yet with this team, but Richardson is finally playing like the pre-season 1st teamer. Jacob Young is looking like his brother, Harmon is finding his groove. The offense started to work, and the Ducks played the defense we've come to expect from Altman's teams in the 2nd half. Those final seconds of the 1st half were traumatic; and I was amazed that it was the Ducks who had the fight and desire, that did remind me of Dillon Brooks, in OT.

Dreams A sweep of the Bruins and Trojans, No.3 and No.5, on the road? Why not. The win over the Bruins makes it 5 of the las 6, the one L to then No.1 Baylor. The Ducks are now 10-6. That L to ASU, 69=67 in OT is still bad, but the 3 point loss to Stanford isn't quite as bad now, with Stanford giving USC their first loss last week.
