Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 54 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Oregon delivers on promised changes, upset No. 9 Arizona in blowout fashion Changes in Oregon’s playstyle began obviously on Saturday afternoon in front of 7,970 attendees, as the Ducks implemented two new starters. Jermaine Couisnard and Nate Bittle started at the shooting guard and power forward roles as Brennan Rigsby, and Quincy Guerrier were now members of the bench unit.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 55 Share Posted January 15, 2023 With the ASU loss fresh on their minds, the Ducks showed their potential in beatdown of Arizona After spending most of Thursday night reviewing Oregon's 17-point home loss to Arizona State, Dana Altman got up Friday morning and started a drive south down Interstate 5.

As a coach, that's your first responsibility; it just drives me nuts. It bothers me the most when we don't compete.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 62 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Dana Altman has a new question to answer as Ducks bolster March Madness hopes Thursday night’s matchup against the Sun Devils, things took an all-time turn for the worse when Oregon got blown out, putting the March Madness hopes on life support.

While he may not have been able to verbalize what the actual answer to that question was, it was clear that a solution came somewhere on the open road.
