    I liked it much better when the Ducks were the underdog.  Don't want fodder for USC to use against us.

    Oregon Men’s Basketball ahead of tomorrow's NCAA Tournament game vs. South Carolina (1 pm, TNT). Oregon Football’s Offensive Coordinator Will Stein and Defensive Coordinator Tosh Lupoi meet with the media after spring practice.

    This situation needs to stop happening.  The playoff selection committee needs to force the issue where all conferences have to have the same number of conference games played.

     

    SEC sticking with 8 conference games in 2025, adjusting start times

    Desiring an all-day SEC football feel, SEC Network game start times can now be pushed back 45 minutes to lead to more staggered finishes, i.e. moving from 11 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. CT. kickoff time.

    Huh?  More handouts given to the Pac-2

     

    Oregon State and Washington State will receive a nice payday from the College Football Playoff after all

     

    The College Football Playoff has finalized a new media rights contract, and what's left of the Pac-12 is set to benefit from the updated distribution model. Oregon State and Washington State will each receive $3.6 million annually from 2026 -- when the new agreement is set to begin -- to at least 2028, three years before the deal is set to expire, CBS Sports' Dennis Dodd confirmed. 

     

    The negotiated amount pales in comparison to what other power-conference schools will make under the model, but it is a huge increase for the nominal "Pac-2's," financial prospects. Prior to the amendement, Oregon State and Washington State were set to make around $350,000 annually from CFP distribution -- the same figure granted to independent programs not named Notre Dame. 

     

    "The Pac-12 is pleased the College Football Playoff will continue to grow as an incredible sporting event for our student-athletes and fans," the Pac-12 said in a statement. "The new agreement to continue on ESPN platforms provides excellent exposure opportunities for Oregon State and Washington State football programs to succeed on the biggest stage in college sports."

    Creighton head coach Greg McDermott told reporters on Wednesday that the Creighton faithful in Pittsburgh will be supporting former Bluejay coach Dana Altman and his Oregon Ducks on Thursday.

     

    The more than 2,500 miles between Eugene and the site of Oregon's first NCAA Tournament game may make it difficult for fans to support them on Thursday.

     

    By the sound of it the 11th-seeded Ducks will receive some assistance from another fanbase competing in Pittsburgh this weekend — at least during the opening round game with sixth-seeded South Carolina.

     

    "I know Oregon is going to have a sea of blue cheering for them on Thursday afternoon because of the way Dana is respected in our community," Creighton head coach Greg McDermoot said on Wednesday morning.

    The 9 biggest storylines for Oregon Ducks going into March Madness

     

    In what looked to be a third-straight season destined for a berth in the NIT, Dana Altman and the Oregon Ducks have utilized a magical run through the Pac-12 Tournament and landed their first bid in the NCAA Tournament since 2021. They now have a chance to continue that run, starting with their first-round game against the South Carolina Gamecocks on Thursday afternoon in the 6 vs. 11 matchup in the Midwest Regional. 

     

    There are several things to watch over the coming days and a lot to learn about the Gamecocks, which was one of the top teams in the SEC this past year. More importantly for Duck fans, though, there are many things to keep an eye on on the Oregon side of the scorer’s table, from player health to potential matchups down the line. 

     

    Here are our most intriguing storylines as the Ducks get set for their NCAA Tournament run.
